Argentina's President Javier Milei says he is declassifying government documents on how Nazi war criminals escaped Europe and resettled in South America following World War Two. Historians believe as many as 5,000 Nazis evaded arrest in Argentina – sometimes with the help of the authorities.

The most prominent of them was Adolf Eichmann. Eichmann was one of the architects of the Holocaust and escaped to Argentina using false papers. Israeli agents captured him in Buenos Aires and took him to Jerusalem to stand trial. He found guilty and sentenced to death.
