In breach of this Alliance, the British government delivered in 1890 an Ultimatum to the Portuguese government, forcing it to retreat from the area known as the area of the Pink Map . Despite this previous breach of the Treaty, during World War II the U.K. invoked the treaty again to assure that Portugal would not support the Axis Powers , and in 1943 the Portuguese Prime Minister, Salazar , even leased a major Allied air and naval base in the Portuguese islands of the Azores . Portugal fought on the Allied side in World War I in accordance with the Treaty. REFERENCES SEE ALSO |
