Condi Rice 'Huge Supporter of Fulbrights'

REYKJAVIK - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said on Friday she was reviewing a State Department decision to withdraw coveted U.S. scholarship grants to Palestinians in Gaza.

At a news conference on a visit to Iceland, Rice suggested she disapproved of the move cancelling the Fulbright scholarships to seven Palestinian students hoping to pursue advanced degrees at American institutions this fall."I can tell you it was a surprise to me," Rice said at a news conference with Iceland's Foreign Minister Ingibjorg Gisladottir. "I am a huge supporter of Fulbrights."
