France to Pay U.S. Holocaust Survivors

France to Pay U.S. Holocaust Survivors
After a year of negotiations with the Obama administration, France has agreed to pay reparations to American Holocaust survivors who had been deported to Nazi death camps via French trains. The bilateral accord will be signed Monday and includes a $60 million lump sum payment to be given to survivors, spouses, or heirs. Some survivors could receive well over $100,000, while spouses could receive tens of thousands of dollars.
