(June 21, 2006)---President Bush briefed reporters Wednesday on his talks in Vienna with European leaders.
The talks come amid rising concern about North Korea's apparent plans to test a long-range ballistic missile.
His visit has drawn protesters.
An estimated 1,200 students, led by anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan, blew whistles, beat drums and shouted "Hey, ho, Bush has got to go" in a demonstration at a train station in Vienna.
After a morning meeting with Mr. Bush, Austrian President Heinz Fischer said he raised the issue of the U.S. detention camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Fischer says Mr. Bush acknowledged that the center is a "delicate and difficult problem" in the relationship between the European Union and the United States.
