Abstract

Britain Wins in Spain
Salvemini, Gaetano | February 18, 1939 issue

add to cart   close window

During the Ethiopian crisis there was never any real clash between the British Foreign Office and Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. As far as Spain is concerned, there has never been the slightest disagreement between them. British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain knows that Mussolini's promises are worth no more than those of a British Prime Minister. Moreover, the British Conservative leaders foresee that the civil war will leave the Spanish people ruined for at least one generation. After their victory the insurgent generals will need loans from abroad in order to cope with their financial difficulties. The English will be able to offer them more of this kind of aid than Mussolini.
