AMBASSADOR JOHN
BRUTON VISITS WASHINGTON, DC-AREA HIGH SCHOOL
Ambassador
John Bruton took some tough questions on the European
Union and its policies today, but this time his challengers
were not working under a deadline. They were high school
seniors at Georgetown Day School who are beginning study
on the EU in their Comparative Government class.
"I could have been at a press conference. The questions
were extremely sophisticated," said Bruton.
The Ambassador plans on visiting more high schools in the
DC-metro. area during his tenure in Washington, as he says
face-to-face interaction with the next generation of American
leaders is vital to the future of the EU/US
relationship.
