President Barack Obama and U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron began discussions at the White House today with the U.S. focused on the next steps in Afghanistan amid waning public support for the war.
Also on the agenda is London-based BP Plc, which has been a focus of anger in the U.S. over the leak from its well in the Gulf of Mexico. Cameron brings a message that BP, Europe’s second-largest energy company by market value, needs to survive to fulfill its promise to compensate U.S. victims of the spill.
