‘I don’t regret anything’: Leader of failed Spanish coup remains unrepentant 40 years on from putsch

T

he leader of Spain’s failed army coup has said he does not regret anything and claimed the country is in a dire state as it marks the 40th anniversary of the infamous putsch.

Antonio Tejero stormed the Spanish parliament with 200 armed guards as MPs were voting on a new government, firing assault rifles over the heads of terrified MPs in a bid to overturn the country’s fledgling democracy.

A moustachioed Tejero was famously shown brandishing a pistol in the parliament, in an enduring image of the event.
