Countries Directly Involved in Committing the Holocaust
- The Holocaust is the modern day name given to Hitler's attempt to exterminate the Jews in what was termed "the Final Solution". Because this 'solution' emanated from Hitler and his closest staff it can only be concluded that Germany was the country that committed the holocaust. Having said that, the holocaust was pursued by the Nazis in a number of European countries.
- Most of the extermination camps were located by the Nazis in German-occupied Poland.
- Romania and the puppet state of Croatia carried out their very own, national holocaust. There were collobroations from most Nazi-occupied countries, such as France and Lithuania.
- In World War 2 (from about 1942 onwards) the Waffen-SS acquired a kind of foreign legion. Ukrainian, Latvian and Lithuanian SS units played a significant role in holocaust, and Ukrainian SS guards figured prominently in the death camps.

Answer
The holocaust was carried out on the orders of the German
government. This is something that modern Germany officially
acknowledges. In other words, the holocaust was NOT some unofficial
or 'private' initiative, and it wasn't a matter of 'excesses' by
units running amok. The holocaust was official policy of the Third
Reich. The governments of Nazi-occupied countries and of most of
Germany's WW2 allies were also heavily involved.

Asked in Holocaust
What countries besides European countries were involved in the Holocaust?
It depends on what you mean by involved. Some Jews from
Vichy controlled French North Africa were handed over to the Nazis,
but apart from that active involvement did not extend beyond
Europe. However, it you include countries that refused to accept
refugees, then one can make out a case to the effect that most
countries were in some sense involved by default.
