Hitler cajoled and threatened but unlike all other Chiefs of State and Foreign Ministers whom he had cowed with his fury, General Franco who had ridden into enemy gunfire a hundred times in battle in Morocco, was unperturbed and unmoved. After the meeting Hitler groaned, "Before I would meet again with that man I would have four teeth extracted. Without gas."

Because when Ike was Supreme Commander of Allied Forces in Europe he had first hand proof that Franco and Spain were not friends of Hitler, but of the Allies. This is described in detail in Hitler Stopped By Franco.
