Overview

• The Archivo General de la Nación (AGN) has released 1,850 digitized documents detailing Nazi operations in Argentina, including records on Josef Mengele and Erich Priebke.
• The archives also include 1,300 secret presidential decrees from 1957 to 2005, covering topics like intelligence operations, arms purchases, and anti-communist strategies.
• This initiative, ordered by President Javier Milei, ensures unrestricted online access to materials previously limited to physical viewing since their 1992 declassification.
• The Simon Wiesenthal Center, which is investigating financial ties between Credit Suisse and Nazism, received copies of the documents earlier this year.
• The records highlight state complicity and intelligence networks that enabled Nazi fugitives to evade justice while operating in Argentina post-World War II.
