From Times wire services

Prince Hassan of Jordan said today after meeting with President Bush that he hopes the Middle East does not “slip on the international agenda” as the world focuses on dramatic developments in Eastern Europe.

Hassan met with Bush and his advisers, including Chief of Staff John H. Sununu and National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft, for 30 minutes in the Oval Office.

“It’s been valuable to speak to the President during this period of world transition and to state our concern and our commitment for lasting peace in our region,” Hassan told reporters.
