- Story Text: U.S. President George W. Bush greets G8 and European
leaders prior to dinner at the G8 conference hosted by the
U.S. in the state of Georgia.
President George W. Bush basked in U.N. approval
for the new Iraq on Tuesday (June 8), delivered as he
opened a summit of major industrial countries likely to be
dominated by the issue.
Unanimous Security Council passage of a resolution
endorsing Iraq's interim government and establishing a
multinational force for the country gave Bush a boost as he
kicked off the Group of Eight summit with a series of
meetings with world leaders.
But policy took a back-seat to a social dinner late
Tuesday. Bush greeted several of the leaders from G8
countries, Russia, and the European Union.
Though Bush has had strained relations with several
European leaders over the Iraq war, he and those he greeted
were in seemingly good spirits on Tuesday.
