Dispute over Holocaust archive
By a Correspondent
A call to open up a huge archive about
victims of the Holocaust has sparked an
international row.
The United States wants the files of the
International Tracing Service, which holds
information on 17.5 million people, to be
made available to historians. But Germany
and Italy and the archive are opposing the
move over concerns that it could lead to
lawsuits claiming that personal details
were given out illegally, The New York
Times reported. The archive, held at Bad
Arolsen, Germany, is based in part on
documents gathered by Allied forces as
they liberated Nazi concentration camps.
The tracing service, part of the
International Committee of the Red Cross,
has used the files to help people to
uncover the fates of relatives who
disappeared during the Second World
War.
The US says that because the task is now
largely completed, the archive should be
opened and used for scholarly research.
