KGB stopped investigation into Raoul Wallenberg’s Fate in late 1990
Newly released documentation from the Swedish Foreign Ministry Archive show that in late 1990 KGB officials acted to stop a review by investigators working for an International Commission charged with determining the fate of Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg. Wallenberg, who had been instrumental in protecting thousands of Jews in Hungary during World War II, disappeared in January 1945 when he was arrested by Soviet forces.
