WASHINGTON (AP) - A month after returning from the Middle East, President Bush will travel to Africa in February on a five-country tour.
The president, accompanied by his wife, Laura, will visit Benin, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ghana and Liberia, the White House announced on Friday.
"This trip will be an opportunity for the president to review firsthand the significant progress since his last visit in 2003 in efforts to increase economic development and fight HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other treatable diseases, as a result of the United States robust programs in these areas," a White House statement said.
