Zapatero holds firm over Iraqi pullout
Nicholas Watt and Giles Tremlett in Madrid
Thursday March 25, 2004
The Guardian

Tony Blair's hopes of wooing the incoming Spanish prime minister suffered a setback yesterday when he was told in blunt terms that Madrid will press ahead with plans to withdraw its troops from Iraq.
