During six visits spanning forty years and two World Wars, Churchill came to understand and support the aspirations of the Maltese people and from as early as 1907 sought to find a formula that would meet their wish for greater self government in a fortress colony. However, it was as Prime Minister in the Second World War that the bonds linking Churchill with Malta grew stronger and his determination to defend and sustain it became entwined with his military acumen as he quickly recognised Malta's vital role in defeating the Axis forces in North Africa.
