  • Czech Leader Visits White House Today Cheney Visits Manila Bonfires
    The Daily Campus Serving the Storrs Community Since 1896 Vol.XCIIINo.81 The University of Connecticut Tuesday, February 20,1990 Czech leader visits White House today WASHINGTON (AP) — Vaclav Havel, the dissident playwright who went from prison to the presidency of Czechoslovakia inside of eight months, will meet with President Bush today, the first of Eastern Europe's new democratic leaders to visit the White House. Havel arrived here Monday evening after slops in Iceland and Canada on a Western trip that comes conspicuously a week before his first trip to Moscow. The Czech Parliament elected Havel president Dec. 29, a few weeks after a peaceful revolution led to the ouster of Communist Party chief Milos Jakes and his hardline government. Now the country, under Havel's caretaker government, is pre- paring for June 8th parliamentary elections that will be its first free balloting in more than 40 years. Havel has said he is coming West not to look for charity but investment in a country that already maintains a standard of living well above that of Poland, its neighbor to the north. "Czechoslovakia is not looking for U.S. aid. They arc not in the same economic dire straits that ... Poland has been in," a senior Bush administration official said. Secretary of State James A.

Vous étiez 25076 spectateurs dans un stade à guichets fermés. C’était un samedi comme nous les aimions. C’était avant. Aujourd’hui, un autre samedi, nous sommes 5000. En attendant, en espérant que, petit à petit, les gradins se remplissent à nouveau. En attendant, en espérant que se lève à nouveau, ce vent d’ouest porteur de chants et de joie. Nous faisons avec et nous nous disons que 5000 c’est déjà mieux que rien. Qu’il faudra pousser pour tous ceux qui n’ont pas pu venir. Pousser comme cinq fois plus, pousser quand même alors que s’avance un très gros poisson dont le destin sera bientôt de nager au sommet de la vague comme le rappelle, dans ce programme, Morgan Schneiderlin, cigogne parmi les aiglons. Les choses n’ont pas bien commencé à Lorient mais la route est encore longue. Avec Nice, c’est un candidat déclaré à l’Europe, et même à la grande, qui vient fouler la pelouse de la Meinau. Ce sera difficile. C’est un match à ne pas céder un seul bout de terrain, un moment de grande intensité. Un soir de duels à gagner. La chasse aux points est ouverte.
