The Spanish journal El País published an article (1) entitled "Bush Desata la Ira en Oviedo" ["Bush Unleashes Popular Ire in Oviedo"]
A Partial translation follows:
"...Bush... gave a conference in Campoamor Theater, Oviedo,... about the new International Order."The reader is referred to:"George Bush... arrived in Oviedo invited by Campus International... organized in 1991 with the support of Oviedo City Hall, the University of Oviedo and the daily La Nueva España..."
"The political profile of Bush's visit was not the only cause for controversy. His speaker's fee of $100,000 USD is what triggered the protest of Izquierda Unida [a political party of the left] at Oviedo's City Hall which is controlled by the Partido Popular with an absolute majority."
"... the former American leader was greeted yesterday by the Oviedo's Mayor ... who presented Bush with several gifts. During the reception, Bush was decorated with the Gold Medal of the University of Oviedo."
