Title: Report: 2 Bush Sons Lobbied Kuwait
Date: 08/30/1993
Publication: Newsday
Author: THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Report: 2 Bush Sons Lobbied Kuwait
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
- Two sons of former President George Bush and several former top Bush
administration officials have tried to exploit Kuwait's sense of
gratitude toward Bush to gain business advantages, New Yorker magazine
reported yesterday. Marvin and Neil Bush, former Secretary of State
James A. Baker III and former White House chief of staff John Sununu
have sought out Kuwaiti officials on behalf of U.S. firms for post-gulf
war rebuilding, investigative journalist Seymour Hersh wrote. The story
says the former president has had no such dealings, nor in any way has
sought to profit from his relationship with Kuwaiti leaders. It also
said no deals involving the former Bush officials or the family members
had as yet produced any business.
 
According to Hersh, the lobbying began
almost immediately after Bush visited Kuwait in April and was greeted as
a hero for driving out Iraqi troops. Hersch wrote that Baker was hired
by the Houston-based Enron Corp., a large natural gas pipeline company
that wants to land the Kuwaiti contract for building a proposed
$600-million electric power plant. Sununu, who left the White House in
1991, was working on behalf of Westinghouse, which wants a part of a
$1-billion Kuwaiti contract to build an electronic perimeter defense
system, the report said. Neil Bush is involved with two privately held
Houston oil-equipment firms that have tried to do business in Kuwait,
and Marvin Bush was hired as a consultant to Washington-based Murphy &
Associates, which also has sought work in Kuwait, Hersh wrote. Baker,
Sununu and the Bush sons could not be located for comment yesterday.
However, the Bush sons told the magazine through an intermediary they
had no business dealings in Kuwait. A representative for Baker said
Baker was trying to direct some Kuwaiti business to the United States.
