| BERLIN - Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman says the German leader will welcome U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama to her office in Berlin next Thursday. |

Spokesman Ulrich Wilhelm says the meeting at the chancellery is expected to take place on Thursday morning. Obama's stop in Berlin is part of a tour of the Middle East and Europe aimed at burnishing the Democratic candidate's foreign policy credentials. Obama also is expected to deliver a speech in Berlin. It remains unclear where that event might take place.
