	===Exile and death===		===Exile and death===
	In February 1994, Remer went into exile in [[Spain]], in a successful effort to avoid imprisonment for his controversial public statements about the ~~Holocaust~~. Remer was an avid supporter of studies by key individuals in ~~Holocaust~~ research, such as [[Fred Leuchter]] and [[Germar Rudolf]]. The high court of Spain ruled against appeals made by the German government to extradite Remer, claiming that he had not committed any crime under Spanish law. Later living in [[Egypt]] and [[Syria]], Remer returned to Spain, and remained a wanted man in Germany until his 1997 death in [[Marbella]] at 85.
