15:17Now PlayingDuring World War II, Argentina pursued a policy of neutrality. This stance was largely influenced by its president at the time, Juan Perón, who maintained close ties with both the Axis and Allied powers. While officially neutral, Argentina did provide some support to the Allies, such as supplying food and raw materials. However, it also harbored Nazi war criminals after the war through a network known as the "ratlines."
One of the most infamous cases was that of Adolf Eichmann, a high-ranking Nazi official responsible for organizing the logistics of the death camps in Europe. He fled to Argentina after the war and lived there under a false identity until he was captured by Israeli agents in 1960.
Overall, Argentina's role during World War II was characterized by a delicate balance of neutrality while maintaining connections with both sides of the conflict.
