The White House said.
US President George W. Bush on Tuesday discussed the global economic crisis with leaders of Britain, France, and Italy, underlining the need for cooperation, the White House said. The US president, who was also expected to reach out soon to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, emphasized that "it's critical that everybody gets on the same page," said spokeswoman Dana Perino. Bush's conversations with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi came ahead of the Group of Seven finance ministers meeting this week in Washington. "The president is discussing the various measures that the United States is taking to bring stability to the markets as well as the importance for all countries to work together to coordinate our actions on finding solutions to the problems that are facing all of us," the spokeswoman said.
