In the Documents That Javier Milei Has Just Released – Related to Nazi Criminals Who Fled to Argentina After WW2 – A Chance for the South American Nation To Come to Terms With Its Past
Argentine President Javier Milei fulfilled a symbolic promise by releasing documents detailing the activities of Nazi criminals who fled to the country after the collapse of National Socialist Germany in 1945.
The previously classified files open a window into Argentina’s turbulent past, and reveal the lives as fugitives of a number of notorious Nazis such as Josef Mengele and Adolf Eichmann.
The Daily Mail reported:
“The 1,850 declassified documents published by the General Archive of the Nation (AGN) also include records of banking operations, secret intelligence files and previously confidential Defense Ministry reports. The files are available for public viewing on a government website, following an order by President Javier Milei.
The decision to publish the documents follows a formal request from United States Senator Steve Daines (Republican-Montana) and representatives from the Simon Wiesenthal Centre during meetings in February.”
But more than just complying with the US request, the move is an integral part of Milei’s commitment to transparency about the country’s controversial history.
“The Simon Wiesenthal Center, which is investigating the Credit Suisse bank’s links to Nazism, has received copies of the files.”
In the documents we see the different fates of ‘monster doctor’ Joseph Mengele and Adolf Eichmann, the ‘architect of the Holocaust’.
Mengele, the ‘Angel of Death’, conducted criminal experiments on prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp. Argentine authorities at one point refused to extradite him to Germany on a technicality.
“Intelligence reports show that no measures were taken against Mengele, who later fled to Paraguay and then Brazil, where he died in 1979 under an assumed identity.”
As for Adolf Eichmann, who organized the Holocaust – he wasn’t so lucky.
“He lived undisturbed with his family until 1960, when he was captured by Israeli Mossad agents in a daring operation.”
Eichmann was executed in 1962 after a controversial trial.
