那时，佛朗哥希望战争能延续下去。

At that point Franco was desirous of prolonging the war.

《牛津词典》

“他们俩都是佛朗哥的坚定支持者，”赖尔主动说道。

"They were both great supporters of Franco," Ryle volunteered.

《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

当公众舆论两极分化时，就像佛朗哥政权结束后那样，君主可以超越“纯粹的”政治，成为国家统一的精神“象征”。

When public opinion is particularly polarised, as it was following the end of the Franco regime, monarchs can rise above "mere" politics and "embody" a spirit of national unity.
