I can’t say I’m surprised. Franco was a nasty piece of work.

But he absolutely refused to allow the nazis to place artillery in Spain that could have bombarded Gibraltar.

He also refused to be goaded by Hitler and Mussolini into joining the Axis powers in the war.

There is much more to admire about Franco than not.Had Franco not defeated the Communists,history might be much different - & not to our liking. Franco was a Spaniard first & foremost.Like it or not Spain owes it’s stability to Franco.
