Did Franco really saved Jews during world war 2 in Spain?


Did Franco really saved Jews during world war 2 in Spain?

In a way he did and in a way he didn't . Just by allowing Jews to enter throught Spain in order to escape the Nazis, but he had no intentions of doing that without pressure from the country. So it was really Spain who saved Jews not Franco.

Actually Franco did not save any Jews during WW2. Spanish Diplomats risk their lives in saving many Jews from Nazi Germany.

Franco did not save any Jews but he did not oppose to allowing them into Spain in order to save them...

Sounds like a rumor, Franco didn't really like the Jews.

he could have if it was a long time ago
