US President George W. Bush declared Friday that he has no intention of meeting with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during his visit to the United Nations headquarters in New York next week. When asked whether he would take advantage of the opportunity to meet with the Iranian president, he responded unequivocally, "No. No I will not meet with him."

Bush and Ahmadinejad are expected to carry speeches Tuesday in front of the UN General Assembly, with Bush’s oration scheduled for the morning hours and Ahmadinejad's for the evening. Bush addressed the press at the White House’s Rose Garden Friday.
