Rice set to return to Middle East
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, after conferring with her aides, said today she will return to the Middle East to work with others on trying to bring an end to the Israeli-Hezbollah fighting, but did not say when she would travel.
“I do think it is important that groundwork be laid so I can make the most of whatever time I can spend there,” Rice told a news conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
