- Abstract
The article focuses on the issue of external assets and heirless property for Nazi victims in Germany. After World War I, the Allied and Associated Powers have made it possible for themselves to take over and apply to reparations account the property within their territories of German nationals. The government of Germany was obligated to recompense its citizens for property which they thus lost. The Paris Reparation agreement provided that governments of neutral countries shall be requested to make available for rehabilitation and resettlement of non-reparable victims of German action, the assets in such countries of Nazi victims who have since died and left no heirs. The Allies, pursuant to this directive, have attempted to obtain commitments regarding disposal of heirless assets.
