Escalation in the North African region has led to a war between Spain and Morocco. Due to the Baleares Memorandum. The Italian Republic promised vague security guarantees to Franco in exchange for Spanish backing to Egyptian entry to the MTO. Nevertheless the powder keg that was the Spanish colonies in Morocco blew up faster than what we possibly anticipated as the MTO faces a crisis of trust and unity. With the Egyptian exit of the MTO, the Baleares Memorandum now falls under scrutiny. Despite much criticism and uproar upon the opposition over the public revelation of the Memorandum. Gasperi’s cabinet plans to follow through with it to maintain Italy’s diplomatic credibility amongst the MTO and a fellow latin nation. Planes refueled and armed up, ships restocked, and our modern arms ready to test their mettle. The war in Morocco may present an opportunity for Italy to flex its military muscle.
