There was a heightened security presence at
Shannon Airport today, as the US Secretary of
State paid a flying visit.
The plane
carrying Condoleeza Rice made a brief refuelling
stop at Shannon, on her way home from a trip to
Iraq and Greece.
The US Secretary of State
did not disembark the flight, and according to
local Gardaí, her Co Clare pit-stop passed off
without incident.
It was Condoleeza Rice's
sixth visit to Shannon this year, making her the
most regular visitor to Shannon airport from the
current Bush administration.
