British Prime Minister David Cameron would travel to the United States to meet the President Barack Obama at the White House on Monday, the White House has said.
Among other things, the two leaders are expected to discuss a wide range of issues, including the current pressing issue of Syria, the White House said yesterday.
"The President looks forward to discuss these issues with the British Prime Minister, that include Syria, trade and economic cooperation, countering terrorism, and priorities for the upcoming G-8 Summit in Northern Ireland," the White House Press Secretary, Jay Carney, told reporters here.

The White House yesterday also announced the visits of the Chilean and Peruvian presidents in June.
Carney said Obama will host President Sebasti�n Pi�era of Chile at the White House on June 4.
