PRIME Minister Mikuláš Dzurinda told the daily Národná Obroda that he thinks he and US President George Bush are friends.
"I really feel that we are friends and I am comfortable in his company. He is a very open and honest man who clearly formulates his opinions and has a firm character," Dzurinda said.
However, the prime minister explained that the main reason for Bush's visit was to acknowledge the progress that the country has made over the past decade.
