Heiligendamm - US President George W Bush has taken ill on the final day of a Group of Eight summit but his condition is not serious, a White House aide said on Friday.
White House counsellor Dan Bartlett said Bush had a stomach
ailment which he described as "not serious". Bush hopes to
return to meetings at the summit later in the day.
Bush decided to meet French President Nicolas Sarkozy in his
private quarters. The new French leader confirmed Bush was not
in top form.
"I have just come out of a meeting with president Bush who
is slightly unwell," Sarkozy told reporters.
"He will join the working session when he can."
