Regarding Spain, the Italian Government confirms its adherence to the United Kingdom formula for the proportional evacuation of foreign volunteers from Spain. It pledges itself to apply this evacuation at a moment and on conditions to be determined by the Non-Intervention Committee, on the basis of that formula.
The Italian Government undertakes that. if this evacuation has not been completed at the close of the Spanish Civil War, all remaining Italian volunteers will forthwith leave Spanish territory and all Italian war material will simultaneously be withdrawn.
Italy. declares that she has no territorial or political aims and seeks mo privileged economic position in or with regard to Metropolitan Spain, the Balearic Islands, Spanish possessions overseas or the Spanish zone of Morocco. She has no intention of keeping any armed forces in those territories.
In taking note of these assurances regarding the Italian policy on the subject of Spain, His Majesty's Government takes occasion to reassert that it regards the settlement of the Spanish question as a prerequisite of the entry into force of the Anglo-Italian Agreement.
