A Jewish group is calling on the U.S. government to pressure Russia to help resolve the mystery of Raoul Wallenberg’s disappearance. The American Jewish Committee, which has published a booklet about the wartime Swedish diplomat, said U.S. officials should “seek the cooperation of acting Russian President Putin to fully open the Soviet-era archives and reveal the truth.” Wallenberg, who saved thousands of Hungarian Jews from the Nazis, was last seen being arrested by the Russians on January 17, 1945.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
