Cartoon by Alfredo on Spain and the United Kingdom’s position at the Rome European Council (1990)

Image
Following the Rome European Council held on 27 and 28 October 1990, the Spanish cartoonist Alfredo comments on the opposition of Margaret Thatcher, British Prime Minister, to the setting of a timetable for economic and monetary union. At the meeting, Margaret Thatcher rejects the Spanish proposal to postpone the deadlines. In the cartoon, Felipe González, as a good Andalusian, launches his charm offensive with the Iron Lady, who remains impassive.
