Abstract
El presente artículo toma una propuesta
concreta, la invitación al presidente de los
Estados Unidos, Woodrow Wilson, a finales
de 1918, a que visitara España. La propuesta
provino del Conde de Romanones con la idea de
proyectar el protagonismo de la España neutral
durante la Gran Guerra. Romanones volvió a
ser presidente del gobierno español en los cinco
meses que transcurren desde el 5 de diciembre de
1918 hasta el 15 de abril de 1919 marcados por
la intensidad de las relaciones internacionales: la
aplicación del Armisticio entre Alemania y los
aliados junto a las primeras conversaciones en
torno al futuro tratado de paz. Romanones viajó
a París a finales de diciembre y tuvo un breve
encuentro con el presidente de los Estados Unidos
Woodrow Wilson. Los dos jefes de gobiernos
trataron diversos asuntos y Romanones tuvo
una peregrina propuesta: invitaba al presidente
Wilson a España, concretamente, a visitar el
puerto de Palos y el monasterio de la Rábida
en la provincia de Huelva. Bajo este paraguas
simbólico Romanones pretendía elevar a España
en el nuevo marco de relaciones internacionales
que se estaba construyendo en Europa tras las
guerra
This article takes a especific proposal, the invitation to the presidente of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, at the end of 1918, to visit Spain.The proposal came from the Count of Romanones with the idea of proyecting the prominence of neutral Spain during the Great War. Romanones was once again president of the Spanish government in the five months that elapsed from December 5, 1918 to April 15, 1919, marked by the intensity of international relations: the application of the Armistice between Germany and the allies along with the first talks about the future peace treaty. Romanones traveled to Paris at the end of December and had a brief meeting with United States President Woodrow Wilson. The two heads of government discussed various issues and Romanones had a strange proposal: he invited President Wilson to Spain, specifically, to visit the port of Palos and the monastery of La Rábida in the province of Huelva. Under this symbolic umbrella Romanones intended to elevate Spain in the new framework of international relations that was being built in Europe after the war
