Blair and Bush to meet
The White House announced today that British Prime Minister Tony Blair, fresh from a visit to Baghdad, will be in the building Thursday and Friday for discussions “on the full range of issues on our strategic agenda.”
Included will be support for the new Iraqi government, stopping Iran from getting nuclear weapons, peace in the Middle East, ending violence in Darfur and promotion of free trade.
For now, neither side is saying whether the meetings will lead to any announcement concerning specific plans for troop withdrawals from Iraq. The two leaders, both under heat at home, will hold a joint press availability on either Thursday or Friday.
