The 62nd anniversary of the disappearance of Raoul Wallenberg was marked in Buenos Aires and other cities. Some 100 people — including Holocaust survivors, foreign dignitaries, local politicians, Jewish community leaders and members of the local Islamic Center — gathered Wednesday near a sculpture of Wallenberg in the Argentine capital to honor the Swedish diplomat who saved Jews from the Nazis. Other tributes were held in New York, Stockholm, Paris, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Berlin, Winnipeg, Vancouver, Caracas, Montevideo and Santiago, Chile.
