Summary
This chapter summarizes the status of the “Final Solution” after the end of Aktion Reinhard and German efforts to expand the process by deporting Jews in countries allied with the Third Reich; depicts the life of the “surviving remnant” in eastern Europe and Jewish communities elsewhere in the Axis orbit until liberation; discusses the degrees and limits of Nazi determination to exert pressure on their reluctant allies; and outlines German anti-Jewish measures after taking direct control in Italy and Slovakia.
