US President George W Bush today made a telephone call to Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh and discussed about the ongoing bilateral negotiations on finalisation of the 123 agreement the successful of which would ratify the civilian nuclear energy cooperation between the two countries.

Both the leaders "expressed happiness at the strengthening of the bilateral relations and reviewed developments pertaining to negotiations on bilateral civil nuclear cooperation," a government release said.

Both the leaders also stressed on the successful conclusion of the Doha Development Round of multilateral trade negotiations.

Dr. Singh told Bush that environmental problems could not be solved by perpetuating poverty in developing countries.
