President Bush to Travel to Paris and Normandy
President Bush will travel to Paris on June 5, 2004, to meet with
French President Jacques Chirac. He will then travel to Normandy on
June 6, 2004, to participate in ceremonies marking the 60th Anniversary
of the D-Day invasion.
The Normandy invasion stands as an historic achievement, in which
the forces of freedom, at great risk and sacrifice, joined together to
turn the tide of war against fascism. Today, our nations stand
together still, equally committed to defeat terrorism and advance the
cause of freedom.
