Topics: Argentine journalists

Uki Goni is an Argentine journalist, author, and historian known for his work exposing the role of Argentine, Swiss, and Vatican authorities in aiding the escape of Nazi war criminals from Europe. He was born in Washington, D.C. in 1953 and was raised in the United States, Argentina, Mexico, and Ireland. Since 1975, he has lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Goni's research places particular emphasis on the part played by the government of Argentine President Juan Peron in organising 'ratline' escape routes for ex-Nazi war criminals, as well as documenting the aid of Swiss and Vatican authorities in their flight.

Goni's research, drawing on investigations in Argentine, Swiss, American, British, and Belgian government archives, as well as numerous interviews and other sources, was detailed extensively in his book ''The Real Odessa: Smuggling the Nazis to Peron's Argentina'' .
