Background: Sweden was a neutral country during the war, and in 1945 it became an attractive destination for former Nazi soldiers hoping to escape the Allies. One such example was 150 Lithuanian and Latvian S.S. soldiers who fled to Sweden after the war. Initially the Swedish government agreed to let them stay as political refugees, but the Soviet government discovered this and applied heavy pressure to have them deported. Sweden ended up agreeing, and all 150 were scheduled for removal. Upon hearing this, the terrified soldiers protested in a number of ways including hunger strikes and even stripping off their clothes, as in the photo above. But in the end the process went through. Several were executed immediately upon arrival and the rest sentenced to hard labor in Soviet gulags. This event is known as the baltutlämningen in Sweden.
