16May2008 Oil and Iran on Bush Saudi agenda (BBC)

BBC, 16/05/2008

Following his visit to Israel, scheduled to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the Israel's foundation, President Bush is expected to concentrate in his discussions with King Adbdullah of Saudi Arabia on oil production and Iran's nuclear activities .

Mr Bush is not visiting the West Bank or Gaza Strip but he is expected to meet the Palestinian leader in Egypt later.

A positive response to Bush's renewed appeal for an increase in Saudi oil production is thought unlikely, although the President and the King are likely to find common ground on the issue of Iran..
