Franco to name Juan Carlos as future Spanish king
Madrid sources report General Franco will announce Prince Juan Carlos of Bourbon as his eventual successor in a Cortes session next Tuesday. The 31 year old grandson has been groomed in statecraft for 16 years, with the move seen as a continuation of the regime paired with cautious liberalization. Franco, 76, unlikely to step down immediately, may defer throne inheritance until his death or retirement as Spain marks the 1936 uprising anniversary.
