Crime/Corruption Breaking News News Keywords: IS BELIEVED TO BE UNPRECEDENTED. Annan in historic meeting with Supreme Court, Congress WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan plans to have lunch with members of the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday during a trip to Washington that includes meetings with key members of the U.S. Congress, congressional sources said. The meeting between a U.N. secretary-general justices from the United States' highest court is believed to be unprecedented. Officials at the United Nations in New York confirmed his Washington trip but would not comment on his itinerary. The purpose of his meeting with the court is not known but the United Nations is the depository of international treaties. Decisions by its 15- member U.N. Security Council provide a basis for international law. On Capitol Hill, Annan plans to meet with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the House of Representatives International Relations Committee and some individual lawmakers, including Rep. Henry Hyde, an Illinois Republican who chairs the House panel. Annan's agenda there is likely to be overloaded. The House of Representatives, over objections from the White House, moved recently to cut back some of the U.S. debt owed to the United Nations in retaliation for the United States losing its membership on the U.N. Human Rights Commission. Other topics are likely to include British-U.S. efforts to revise U.N. sanctions on Iraq, rising violence in the Middle East and U.N. peacekeeping operations in the Balkans and Africa, the congressional sources said. A day after announcing he would seek re-election as the world's top diplomat, Annan went to Washington in March to see President George W. Bush but did not have time then to have meetings beyond the White House. A 63-year-old Ghanaian, Annan completes his first five-year term on Dec. 31. His re-election is virtually certain after an endorsement from Bush and most other key U.N. members.
