95-year-old former camp guard Jakiw Palij was deported to Germany from his New York City early on Tuesday morning.
Palij was the last remaining Nazi collaborator living in the United States.
Palij had his U.S. citizenship revoked in 2003 by a federal judge, and was ordered to be deported a year later.
It took President Trump to actually deport him back to Germany.
US Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell praised President Trump for this principled move.
Ambassador Richard Grenell: “It’s really a credit to President Trump who was very clear about this case… He wanted this individual out of the United States.” https://t.co/U75OdUW6b4 pic.twitter.com/zFLdJiRsOP
