Argentina Eyes Expulsion Over Nazi Subversives
Argentina’s congress demanded expulsion of ringleaders tied to Sud under cover groups after an investigating committee named German ambassador Edmund Von Thermann. The motion urged removal of chiefs of welfare and cultural circles and labor unions aiding Nazi activity, and aimed to strip German chamber of commerce protections. The probe also cited alleged undercover groups reactivating Nazi networks across South America and a potential replacement for Von Thermann. Wideman, once Rome envoy, drew attention amid ongoing frontier and neutrality debates.
