Iraqi PM Seeks US Help to Fight Terrorism

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is scheduled to meet Friday at the White House with U.S. President Barack Obama, where VOA correspondent Meredith Buel reports Maliki is expected to seek help in fighting insurgents in his violence-plagued country. In an address Thursday, Maliki said terrorist groups are taking advantage of power vacuums created by revolutions in the Arab world.
