Workers at the Argentina Supreme Court stumbled upon a trove of Nazi-era documents while clearing out the basement for a new museum project. These boxes, crammed with notebooks featuring swastikas and propaganda materials, had been hidden away for over 80 years. The court's president, Horacio Rosatti, expressed the importance of these documents, noting their potential to reshape our understanding of Holocaust-related events.
The materials were confirmed to have been sent from the German Embassy in Tokyo in 1941, coinciding with Argentina's neutral stance during World War II. Jonathan Karszenbaum, director of the Holocaust Museum in Buenos Aires, remarked on the shocking volume of the findings, emphasizing the need for a thorough investigation into this significant discovery. A ceremony to further explore the contents drew officials and community members, highlighting the ongoing relevance of historical accountability.
