What if jew escaped to portugal during ww2

If a Jew managed to escape to Portugal during World War II, they would have been relatively safe. Portugal was a neutral country during the war, and thus not directly involved in the conflict. Portuguese officials, including the dictator António de Oliveira Salazar, were sympathetic to the plight of Jews and allowed many to enter the country.

However, life in Portugal for Jewish refugees was not easy. Many were forced to live in poverty and were subject to discrimination and harassment by the local population. Despite this, many Jews were able to survive the war in Portugal, and some even managed to emigrate to other countries after the war.

It should be noted that escaping to Portugal was not an option for most Jews during the war. The vast majority were trapped in Nazi-occupied Europe and faced persecution, forced labor, and death in concentration camps.
