BERLIN: World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz is not welcome at an Africa forum the bank is holding
in Berlin next week if he is still in his post at the time, German Development Minister Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul said.
Speaking to reporters in Berlin on Wednesday, the minister said she did not want the issue of the World Bank's leadership to distract from a discussion of development aid for Africa at
the two-day meeting which begins on Monday.
"I would not advise him to (take part) if he's still in office," she said, referring to Wolfowitz.
