OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría welcomed President Bush’s nomination of Robert B. Zoellick as his choice for president of the World Bank and said that his arrival at the head of this important institution will contribute to expanding co-operation between the World Bank and the OECD.
“I have known Bob Zoellick for almost twenty years” said Mr. Gurría, who previously served successively as Foreign Minister and Finance Minister of Mexico. “His leadership and extensive experience in dealing with international organizations, as well as his clear understanding of the complexities of development issues, make him an excellent choice for this post.”
