Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United States
should seek a final and conclusive account of the whereabouts and defini-
tive fate of Raoul Wallenberg.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JANUARY 4, 1995
Mr. ENGEL submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on International Relations
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that
the United States should seek a final and conclusive
account of the whereabouts and definitive fate of Raoul
Wallenberg.
Whereas Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish citizen and diplomat,
was responsible for saving the lives of 15,000 Hungarian
Jews through the issuance of Swedish passports and for
helping an additional 100,000 Hungarian Jews escape
Nazi authorities during World War II;
Whereas on January 17, 1945, Raoul Wallenberg was taken
into ‘‘protective custody’’ by Soviet troops, in violation of
all international standards of diplomatic immunity;
Whereas Raoul Wallenberg was later arrested by Soviet
troops on charges of spying, and finally taken to
•HRES 17 IH
Lubyanka Prison in Moscow, where he was reported to
have died on July 17, 1947, of a heart attack;
Whereas conflicting reports and information have surfaced
over the last 45 years claiming that Raoul Wallenberg
was executed by Soviet authorities or in fact is still alive
in the former Soviet Union;
Whereas the Soviet Union has now ceased to exist and has
been succeeded by the Commonwealth of Independent
States which has pursued democratic reform while seek-
ing to address Soviet atrocities of the past; and
Whereas the time has come to finally put an end to all specu-
lation and confusion as to the fate of Raoul Wallenberg:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
(1) gratefully acknowledges the cooperation of
the Soviet and now Russian authorities in providing
records and personal effects of Raoul Wallenberg to
his family;
(2) requests that the President pursue, through
diplomatic discussions with the Government of the
Russian Federation, an investigation into the where-
abouts and definitive fate of Raoul Wallenberg; and
(3) requests that the results of this investiga-
tion be made public.
