MADRID, May 30 (UPI) -- Spaniards dislike Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez most among world leaders, including U.S. President George W. Bush, a poll indicated.

The survey of 2,500 Spaniards in 2007 found the leftist Chavez ranks first among major world leaders the Spanish do not care for, ahead of the U.S. president and Cuba's former leader Fidel Castro.

Bush was the most disliked world leader among Spaniards in the 2006 version of the poll, El Pais reported Friday.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was among the leaders most admired in Spain.
