    Spain? What have we going with Spain? How much export/import trade between the two countries? How many tourists? What will the President come back with to show for the official trip?
    Perhaps others can fill me in here, because I’m not clear on why a Hungarian President should go there, other than to have a nice warm weather junket in the winter season.

    Well, Spain is nice this time of the year. Besides, who to say that he did not have a craving for some Paella?

    Hi Zsuzsa,
    Now if only he would say and admit that publicly; then, like a psychotherapist to his patient I would exlaim: “Now we’re making progress!”.
