Belgium's Defence Minister in Washington DC


Our new Defence Minister, Pieter De Crem, was in the USA and he had a well filled agenda to accomplish. He was a few days in DC and, among other formal activities, he brought homage to the Veterans of the Battle of the Bulge at the Arlington Cemetery, he met, at the Pentagon, the US Secretary of Defense, Robert M. Gates. They talked about bilateral defense issues (I guess ...). A few more pix HERE.
