President Bush backs the Darfur round

Good catch by the WSJ's Washington Wire blog:

Joining visiting South Africa’s President Mbeki in the Oval Office Friday, President Bush told reporters that the two leaders “talked about a lot of issues.”

One, he said, was “Darfur and the need for South Africa and the United States and other nations to work with the Sudanese government to enable a peacekeeping force into that country to facilitate aid and save lives.”

Another was economics, particularly the “necessity of trade,” Mr. Bush reported. “We talked about, interestingly enough, [about] the Darfur round,” he said.

(He meant the Doha round of trade negotiations, hosted by the World Trade Organization.)
