WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is being urged to investigate Swiss bank UBS for “obstructing” congressional efforts to uncover its “deep” ties to the Nazi regime through accounts that looted Jewish assets and helped SS officers flee to Argentina following the Second World War. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) penned a letter last Tuesday to a State Department official tasked with combating antisemitism, calling the bank’s conduct “a historic shame” and requesting assistance in furthering his own investigation of UBS’s alleged obstruction.
