Secretary Rice to Travel to Europe

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will travel to Germany, France and the United Kingdom from March 29-April 2, 2006. During the trip, she will consult with key European allies on the range of common challenges, including Iran, the United States is addressing with its transatlantic partners.

Secretary Rice’s trip to Berlin and Paris will provide an opportunity to continue her dialogue with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Jacques Chirac and other top officials.

Her visit to the United Kingdom will take her to Liverpool and Blackburn, where she will accompany Foreign Minister Jack Straw. The trip mirrors that which the Secretary and the Foreign Minister made to Alabama last October, underscoring the shared values and cultural links between the United States and the United Kingdom.
