US Will Help Improve Anti-Terror Defences, Bush Promises
<http://allafrica.com/stories/200310020536.html>

Although Kenyans are anxious to see U.S. government warnings against travel to their country lifted, "at the moment, Kenya is a place where citizens should be wary of traveling," President Bush told reporters, Wednesday.

In the White House's Roosevelt room, Bush spoke with four Africa-focused journalists about next week's state visit by President Mwai Kibaki of Kenya, one of four key U.S. strategic partners in Africa. The senior director for African affairs on the National Security Council, Dr. Jendayi E. Frazer, sat with the president as he fielded questions from Charles Cobb Jr of allAfrica.com, Martin Mbugua of the Kenyan Daily Nation, Kevin Kelly of the East African and Esther Githui of the Voice of America Swahili Service.


Bush said he expects that President Kibaki will want to discuss the damage caused by the travel advisories to Kenya's economy. "I hope he does bring this up because we will be able to explore ways to work, to create the conditions so that the advisories can come off... We certainly don't want to unnecessarily damage our friend, but on the other hand, we have an obligation to be frank and honest with the American people."

4. Yes, Bush, you DO have an obligation to be frank and honest with
the American people. When will you start?
