Mubarak Meets With Obama
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak makes his first visit to the U.S. in five years, and is scheduled to meet President Obama today. Mubarak is expected to tell the president that Arab nations are unwilling to comply with calls to make concessions to Israel unless and until Israel makes their own tangible concessions, like freezing settlements in the West Bank. We look at the context and what to expect from the meeting with Takeaway regular Julie Mason, reporter for The Washington Examiner.
