Comment

This entry for former US Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen needs an entry added to her Controversies section: that in 2012 she had the extreme discourtesy to pressure then Irish PM Enda Kenny, while he was on an official visit to the US, to block the proposed erection of a statue of Che Guevara in Galway (where Guevara had ancestral roots). This provoked the ire of many Irish as the Comments section of the news report (link below) reflects. Even by US standards for trying to dictate to citizens and leaders of other countries how to behave, her letter pressuring Kenny was beyond impudent. This incident needs to be added to her Wikipedia record as it helps explain (hopefully to Americans) why the US is held in such low regard by so many abroad, even by citizens of allied countries. Thank you.

Controversies are unreadable

The entirety of the section under "Controversies" is terribly written. As it is the text is practically unintelligible and should be removed or replaced with a more coherent version. 108.174.175.69 (talk) 00:06, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Re-add image that has been changed

Can someone re-add the official portrait: Ileana Ros-Lehtinen official photo.jpg that had been used for years. Someone replaced it with a far older and less good image recently. 2A04:4A43:486F:C7E0:3886:C472:32D7:650F (talk) 11:05, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
