Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish citizen and a Christian, was instrumental in saving the lives of thousands of Jews during Adolf Eichmann's "final solution" for the Jews in Hungary during World War II. On January 17, 1945, Wallenberg was seized by the Soviets, imprisoned, and never seen again. In July, 1982, a Swedish official said that his government was working on the supposition that Wallenberg was still alive, though they had done almost nothing in all the intervening years to bring about his rescue.
