Victims of Nazi medical experiments get more funds

[NNN0LHI]

GENEVA, April 1 (Reuters) - Some 714 surviving victims of Nazi medical experiments are being paid additional funds, bringing their compensation to 6,693 euros ($8,675) each, an international aid agency said on Friday.

But the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said no amount could make up for "atrocious experiments" performed on human guinea pigs by Nazi doctors in concentration camps.

The IOM is handling claims submitted by non-Jewish victims to the German Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future", set up in 2000 by the German government and industry to compensate various categories of victims of the Nazi regime.

The foundation's board decided earlier this year to use some interest accrued on its 5.12 billion euro fund to make a final payment to personal injury victims, the IOM said in a statement.

1. A lot of the results of that "research" and even some Nazi medical

staff wound up being incorporated here in America battling godless communism as "Americans" during the Cold War.
President Clinton apologized to the world for that during his administration as well as finding and prosecuting Nazis.
