Egyptian President Hosny Mubarak is to meet German Chancellor Angela Merkel for talks in Berlin later this week, a German government spokesman announced on Tuesday.

The leaders are to discuss the Middle East peace process as well as bilateral and regional topics during their meeting on March 4, Merkel's spokesman added, dpa reported.

Mubarak faces potential opposition from the former head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Mohammed ElBaradei, who has returned to Egypt in response to calls for him to run for president in the 2011 elections.

Mubarak last visited Berlin in April 2008, and Merkel held talks with the Egyptian president in Cairo in January 2009.
