US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrived in Tunis early Saturday on the second leg of her four-nation tour of North Africa. Rice arrived in Tunis from Tripoli where she was the first US secretary of state to visit for 55 years and held a landmark meeting with Libyan leader Muhammar Kadhafi to seal a US-Libya rapprochement.
Relations between Washington and Tripoli were suspended in the early 1980s after the US placed Libya on its list of state sponsors of terrorism.
