ABSTRACT
An exhibition on Arturo Frondizi’s presidency at Buenos Aires’s National Library provided the forum for Oscar Camilion’s November 2001 lecture on Frondizi’s foreign policy. This chapter analyzes Argentinian and other reactions to Eichmann’s kidnapping, including the deterioration of Argentinian-Israeli links, and explains the reluctance to deal with the affair, especially in Argentina. Earlier NSDAP inroads among the German community and members of the Argentinian elites are connected with such a reputation. It is known that CEANA’s identification of up to 180 individuals of various nationalities by name and attention elicited by the relevant authorities of their respective and other countries represents a qualitatively important fraction of the whole, though certainly not the total number of war criminals involved in the influx to Argentina.
