WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House suggested Tuesday that President Bush might refuse to meet with Nigerian President Olesegun Obasanjo this week if answers are not forthcoming about the disappearance of indicted former Liberian President Charles Taylor.
Taylor has been indicted by a U.N. tribunal on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity while in office.
He has been living in Nigeria under an agreement that helped end Liberia's civil war in 2003. Last week, Nigeria's government agreed reluctantly to surrender him to stand before a U.N. tribunal, but Nigerian officials said Tuesday that Taylor had vanished.
