President to Welcome Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic to the White House
President Bush will host Slovak Prime Minister Mikulas Dzurinda at the
White House on March 13, 2006. The Slovak Republic is among America's
closest friends and allies, and an active partner in advancing freedom in
eastern Europe, Iraq and Afghanistan. As the longest-serving leader in
central Europe, Prime Minister Dzurinda has enacted far-reaching pro-growth
economic policies and his government has been at the forefront of efforts
to promote democracy in the Balkans, Ukraine and Belarus. President Bush
looks forward to discussing these and other issues on the transatlantic
agenda.
