83 boxes of Nazi-era documents - postcards, photographs, and propaganda materials - were found in the basement of the Argentinian Supreme Court. This was reported by Der Spiegel, citing local media.
Specialists from the Holocaust Museum in Buenos Aires were involved in the process of organizing the finds.
According to court documents, these materials were sent to Argentina in June 1941 by the embassy of the "third Reich" in Tokyo, the capital of Japan. The goal was to promote Hitler's ideology in the South American region.
However, after the cargo arrived, the Argentine government confiscated it, as the dissemination of these materials could threaten the country's neutrality in World War II.
It is known that after Germany's defeat in 1945, many Nazi officials fled to Argentina. In the same year, the National Archives of Argentina published 1850 documents relating to war criminals such as Adolf Eichmann and Josef Mengele.
