Exhibition in Switzerland shows how Polish diplomats helped Jews in WWII

The diplomats, led by the Polish ambassador to Switzerland at the time, produced passports of Latin American countries which helped hundreds of Jews escape from Poland at a time when the country was under Nazi German occupation.

The exhibition, in the Swiss capital Bern, opened by Poland’s Deputy Prime Minister and Culture Minister Piotr Gliński on Thursday, documents an effort in which Polish diplomats helped rescue Jews from the Holocaust, public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported.
