President Bush, Iraqi President Discuss Troop Deal

Wednesday, Iraq's president and President Bush expressed cautious optimism about prospects for completing a complex agreement that would keep U.S. troops in Iraq after a U.N. mandate expires at year end. The U.S. is working on an agreement that "suits" the Iraqi government according to President Bush. After meeting with Bush, Iraqi's President spoke in the Oval Office and cited recent progress and said he hoped it could be finished "very soon". Iraqi and U.S. authorities are trying to meet a July target date for completing the security agreement. This should be of interest to everyone.
