#1 Old story on the US invoking its right to withhold tech transfer approval.

But it's amusing to see Hugo insist that it was cost that killed the alternative, i.e. to fit out the planes with Euro systems. He's been dangling that option in front of Spain for a year and jerked it back because he didn't get his bully pulpit in NY.

He so very much wanted to have the right to enter the US at any time and harrangue Bush from the steps of the UN headquarters building and from the security council chambers.
