    His main responsibility was to make sure the French collaborated with the Nazis in furthering their antisemitic goals. He played a large part in the deportation of both foreign Jewish refugees and French-born Jews, particularly after Germany occupied southern France in the fall of 1942. After the war Abetz was tried for war crimes and sentenced to 20 years doing hard labor. He served just five years. (English)
