Jozef Tiso
Jozef Tiso was a Slovak politician and Catholic priest who served as the Prime Minister and later as the President of the Slovak Republic during World War II. He is infamously known for his role in collaborating with Nazi Germany and implementing antisemitic policies that led to the persecution and deportation of thousands of Jews. Tiso's controversial legacy continues to provoke debate in Slovakia regarding nationalism, collaboration, and the Holocaust.
