President Leonel Fernandez will travel to Washington on 24 October and will meet with President George W. Bush the following day to analyze both countries' bilateral agenda, including trade, drug trafficking, security and terrorism. Presidential Press Director Rafael Nunez informed that the Dominican President's visit to Washington seeks to strengthen cooperation between the United States and the DR in issues of common interest such as security and energy, and to reiterate the commitment to foster free trade and economic growth. The DR-CAFTA agreement is also believed to be on the agenda, and Diario Libre is reporting that it is possible that the country's oft-postponed entry into the treaty will finally be announced. Fernandez will return on 26 October, after holding meetings with representatives of multi-lateral funding organizations, members of the Bush administration cabinet, and the Inter-American Dialogue.
