One such issue was the so-called Free-Trade Area of the Americas, which was proposed by former US President George H.W. Bush in 1990, and then collapsed at the Mar del Plata summit in Argentina in 2005. Incensed by the presence of Bush père’s son, President George W. Bush, Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez rallied thousands of anti-American demonstrators to protest against the agreement.
其中有一个问题就是所谓的美洲自由贸易区，这一想法由老布什总统于1990年提出，但在2005年的阿根廷马德普拉塔美洲峰会上谈崩了。出于对老布什之子、美国总统小布什的愤慨，委内瑞拉总理查韦斯率领数千反美游行者反对这一协定。
