General Armada
General Antonio Tejero Molina, commonly referred to as General Armada, was a key figure in the attempted coup d'état in Spain on February 23, 1981, known as the 23-F. He was viewed as the principal beneficiary of the coup attempt, which sought to overthrow the democratic government of Spain. His actions during the coup, including attempting to establish a military-led government, ultimately led to his arrest and conviction. Documents recently declassified have shed light on his communications with King Juan Carlos I during the coup, revealing the tense dynamics at play and the King’s efforts to maintain constitutional order.
