Portugal agrees to grant Britain temporary facilities in the Azores to safeguard Atlantic merchant shipping. The move, announced by Churchill, preserves Portugal's neutrality and does not give the United States base rights. British forces will be withdrawn after the war, with Eden and Salazar hailing closer alliance and improved shipping protection.
