Rumsfeld Seeks Closer Ties With Algeria
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld met Sunday with senior government leaders on what Pentagon officials said they believe to be the first visit to Algeria by a U.S. defense secretary. Rumsfeld arrived here from Tunisia where he toured the North Africa American Cemetery and laid a wreath in honor of the 2,841 U.S. servicemen buried near the ancient city of Carthage on the Mediterranean Coast. Algeria was the second stop on a three-day North Africa tour that will end Monday in Morocco. Rumsfeld is trying o encourage more cooperation to fight Islamic extremism and terrorism
