Germany Greece Nazi Debt
FILE - In this Sunday, March 15, 2015 file photo, a Hellenic Railway officer walks in front of a train that was used by the Nazis to carry Jews from Thessaloniki to Auschwitz during the WWII, in the Greek northern town of Thessaloniki, on the 72nd anniversary of the roundup and deportation of its Jews to Nazi extermination camps during World War II. It was 1943 and the Nazis were deporting Greece’s Jews to Poland’s death camps. Hitler’s genocidal accountants reserved a chilling twist: The Jews had to pay their train fare. The total bill for 58,585 Jews sent to Auschwitz and other camps came to over 2 million Reichsmark - more than 25 million ($27 million) euros in today’s money. The Jewish community of Thessaloniki, Greece’s biggest, says it is examining the possibility of reclaiming the rail fares from Germany - and with seven decades of interest the amount would be enormous.
