| Rumsfeld in Saudi Arabia |
| 2001-10-03 |
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld arrived in Saudi Arabia Wednesday to discuss Washington's campaign against terrorism with its most powerful Gulf Arab ally, the U.S. embassy said. Rumsfeld, who also plans to visit Egypt, Oman and possibly Uzbekistan, said during his journey to the kingdom that he would not raise the sensitive question of U.S. warplanes using the kingdom's air bases for any strikes on Afghanistan. |
