Washington, 9 May –(ANA)-US President Barack Obama will give a long-awaited speech on US relations with the Muslim world on a visit to Egypt, the White House has announced.
He will travel to Egypt on 4 June and a day later arrive in Germany for a visit to Dresden and the site of the Nazi concentration camp at Buchenwald.
During his election campaign, Mr Obama promised to make a major speech on ties with Muslims early in his presidency.
Egypt arguably represented "the heart of the Arab world", a spokesman said.
In Turkey last month, the president declared that the US was not at war with Islam and he called for a greater partnership with the Muslim world. (ANA)
