After the report, who stopped the Hungarian deportations?
Miklós Horthy
Adolf Hitler
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Winston Churchill
Answer
The Hungarian Regent, Miklós Horthy, played a pivotal role in halting the deportation of Jews from Hungary during the Holocaust. He issued an order in July 1944, demanding the cessation of all Jewish transports and the release of those already detained. Horthy's intervention, though not entirely altruistic, saved thousands of lives and demonstrated a rare act of defiance against Nazi Germany's genocidal plans.
