Enrique Gómez Hurtado, was, amongst other things Ambassador to France. He was described by ISGP as "One of the best bootlicker[s] of Bush", where there is a fairly substantial set of quotes. [1]
In 1993, he declared to an international drug policy conference in Baltimore: "The income of the drug barons is greater than the American defense budget. With this financial power they can suborn the institutions of the State, and if the State resists . . . they can purchase the firepower to outgun it. We are threatened with a return to the Dark Ages."[1]
Deep political connections
Enrique Gómez Hurtado attended Le Cercle, in 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985 - and probably other years. His brother Álvaro Gomez-Hurtado also attended.
