Johan Wilhelm (Jukka) Rangell (25 October 1894 – 12 March 1982) was the Prime Minister of Finland from 1941 to 1943.
[1] Educated as a lawyer, he was a close acquaintance of President Risto Ryti before the war, and made his initial career as a banker in the Bank of Finland.
[4] During Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler's state visit to Finland in August 1942, Rangell silenced Himmler's questions concerning the Jewish minority of Finland by famously stating: "Wir haben keine Judenfrage" ("We do not have a Jewish question").
[6] In the war-responsibility trials, Rangell was convicted for 6 years of prison in February 1946 for alleged crimes against peace.
After his release, Rangell did not return to politics, but continued to work for the Finnish Olympic Committee and the IOC until 1967.
