Conges terminology question

Barbara Cochran (a guest user) asked this question:

Language pair:	French > English
Subject:	General
Level of diffculty:	Easy / medium
Word or term in question:	pouvaient la désenliser
Context:	La méthode et le réalisme de l’ofﬁcier américain, l’intérêt sincère qu’il portait à toutes ces questions – ainsi que je pus m’en rendre compte au cours de ces recherches – lui valurent mon entiere confiance. Dès ce moment il me parut indiqué pour mener à bien la tâche qu’il avait brillamment commencée à Paris. Pour cela il fallait qu’il ne restât pas stationné à un poste ﬁxe et il devenait indispensable qu’il suivît la progression des armées. Trop de papiers, de listes, de comptes rendus encombraient déjà cette affaire et en dissimulaient l’urgence. Seules des initiatives personnelles, précises et volontaires, pouvaient la désenliser. C’était en tout cas mon espoir et ma conviction profonde. Quel dommage que James Rorimer n’appartînt pas à la 7e armée qui, en ce début d’avril 1945, avançait en Bavière, dans la direction des châteaux où se trouvaient nos œuvres d’art spoliées !

My comment:

(ie the affair had gotten completely bogged down in red tape. Only precise, clear-sighted personal initiatives would be able to pull it out).
