The second half of this article represents a POV interpretation of Mussolini's foreign policy in the tradition of Renzo de Felice. The claim that Mussolini was forced into an alliance with Hitler is utter bullshit. MacGregor Knox, a professor of international history at LSE, has thoroughly disproved this argument. There is precious little proof to suggest that Mussolini would have remained faithful to the Stresa Front had Britain and France consented to his conquest of Ethiopia. On the other hand, there is more than enough evidence to suggest that Mussolini planned to align with Hitler well before the invasion of Ethiopia. I’ve removed the counterfactual paragraph that claims to ascertain Mussolini’s intentions and in the event that the Hoare-Laval Pact would have been implemented. -V-
Could this page be merged with the Second Italo-Abyssinian War page they are relevant to each other.
