Arieh Levavi, Israel’s former Ambassador to Buenos Aires today presented to the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Knesset, Israel’s Parliament, an exhaustive survey on the recent dispute between Argentina and Israel over the capture in the Argentine capital of Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi war criminal who directed the mass killing of 6,000,000 Jews in Europe during the Second World War.

Mr. Levavi, who was ordered by the Argentine Government to leave the country, stressed in his report the solidarity shown by the Argentine Jewish community “which demonstrated its loyalty to the Jewish nation without in any way detracting from its members’ responsibilities as Argentine citizens.”
