Background
In 1867, Spain and Chile had reached a preliminary agreement to receive the warships embargoed by the British neutrality laws, which caused the diplomatic incident between Peru and Chile in 1868.Historia Diplomática de Chile (1541-1938) Barros van Buren Manuel Editorial Andrés Bello 1958 268 es https://books.google.com/books?id=6n7jAAAAMAAJ
In 1871, an armistice was signed in Washington, D.C. between Spain and allies Peru and Chile. Later, at the beginning of the War of the Pacific, Spain signed the two treaties in Paris with Peru (August 14, 1879) and Bolivia (August 21, 1879), which ended the state of war.
In 1881, the Chilean government allowed the arrival of Spanish merchant ships to its ports in recognition of the protection provided by Spanish merchants to the Chilean victims of the Battle of Iquique.Emigración y relaciones bilaterales España-Chile. 1810-2015 Azcona Pastor José Manuel Dykinson 2016 107–108 9788490859551 es https://books.google.com/books?id=MAvODQAAQBAJ
