Wrong!
Most of the leading members of the Nazi Party went on to be arrested and stand trial at Nuremberg - unless, like Himmler, they committed suicide, escaped but were later captured by the Israelis, etc. Many minor functionaries disappeared into civilian life and kept a low profile. Yes, it is a shame that they weren't more-vigorously rooted out and prosecuted - but we all know how eager everyone was to sweep a lot of the dirt under the rug and return to "normalcy."
Yes, some mid-tier and lower-tier Nazis were successful in downplaying their actual culpability and were later able to regain some undeserving standing in the post-war German military, industry, and government. Some Germans who had collaborated with the Nazis were too-quickly forgiven and allowed to re-integrate into society because some higher-ups felt that they were indispensable. And we all know about "Operation Paperclip."
But you grossly exaggerate when you write that "most of the leaders" went on to become "leaders of the EU and UN."
The Allies thought it best to take the best Fascists of Germany and Italy and appoint them into high office [...]
Would you care to name any names?
The CIS is an example of where the fascists went, because they helped set it up.
You have a bone to pick with the "Commonwealth of Independent States?

And please don’t forget those who went through the „special camps“ in the Soviet zone from 1945 to 1950.
Of the roughly 160,000 internees, about 75% were Germans (most others were Soviet POWs who had been liberated at the end of hostilities, but who had somehow run afoul of the Soviet administration), many of whom were not affiliated with the Nazi party. About 40,000 perished in the camps, so I would not quite say that they were treated with kid- gloves…
