U.S. President George W. Bush will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon at the White House on June 10 to discuss the situation in the Middle East, the White House announced on Monday.

"The visit of the prime minister comes in the context of ongoing consultations among senior U.S. and Israeli leaders aimed at promoting peace and security in the Middle East," the White House said in a statement.

The Bush-Sharon summit, the sixth of its kind, is preceded by a meeting between Bush and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak at Camp David, Maryland, this weekend.

The meetings are part of the Bush administration's latest efforts to revive the Middle East peace process.

Two U.S. envoys, Assistant Secretary of State William Burns and Central Intelligence Director George Tenet, are traveling in the region for talks with regional leaders. They are expected to return to Washington before the Bush-Mubarak summit.
