The Movement for the Self-Determination and Independence of the Canary Islands (Spanish: Movimiento por la Autodeterminación e Independencia del Archipiélago Canario, MPAIAC), was an independentist organization and socialist nature, founded in 1964 by Antonio Cubillo, whose objective was the secession of the Canary Islands from Spain. During the 1970s it operated through two terrorist groups: the Guanche Armed Forces (FAG) and the Canarian Armed Detachments (DAC), directly, but unintentionally causing one death, and indirectly causing 583 deaths and 61 injuries. It maintained good relations with other groups terrorists, mainly First of October Anti-Fascist Resistance Groups (GRAPO), who provided it with weapons and explosives, and with socialist Arab governments, such as Libya and Algeria, which provided financing and in Algiers they had a radio station. Also MPAIAC radio programs asked the Canarian people to "return to their roots" and tried to popularize the Berber language.[1]
