Just as the way the French and English had behaved, quite correctly but in fact ambiguously, allowed Mussolini to gobble up Ethiopia in '3 5, so in Spain it was above all the wicked wavering of Baldwin, and Halifax, and of Blum himself, that turned the balance in Franco's favour.
Hain zuzen ere, frantses eta ingelesen jokaerak, formaz zuzen baina egiatan anbiguoak, Mussoliniri 1935ean Etiopia ahotada batez irenstea onartu zion bezala, era berean Espainian Baldwin, Halifax eta Blum beraren dudamudak izan ziren zortearen balantza Francoren alde jarri zutenak.
