Fanfani - Urges Nasser to Accept Reality of Israel's, Existence in. ME

•

ATHENS, (JTA) — Stopping
off in the Greek capital follow-
ing his five-day visit to the
United Arab Republic, Italian
Premier Amintore Fanfani told
a. press conference that he had
"always stated and repeated
that • Israel exists and is an
historical and geographical real-
ity."
Later, sources close to the
Premier confirmed to Mrs. Tul-
lia Zevi, Jewish Telegraphic
Agency correspondent who ac-
companied Premier Fanfani on
his Egyptian visit, that the
Premier had during his meet-
ings with United Arab Republic
President Nasser repeatedly em-
phasized the unanimous deter-
mination of Italy and the West
to defend Israel's right to exist-
ence.
The Premier also expressed
the hope that Arab leaders
would eventually recognize Is-
rael's existence. The same source
told the JTA correspondent that
President Nasser seemed to ad-
mit the inevitability of such a
move by the Arabs.
At the press conference, the
Italian Premier reported that he
and President Nasser had dis-
cussed in detail the situation of
the Arab refugees. Premier Fan-
fani declared: "If, during the
past three years the West had
made fewer mistakes . toward
Egypt, the situation would
w
be
different today.
"The free world must help
those who make an effort to
better their economic and social
standards. All those who seek
and wish for equilibrium in this

national imbalance."
(The West German govern-
ment this week end recalled its
Ambassador in Cairo "for con-
sultations" in the first of two
moves designed to underline its
displeasure at the United Arab
Republic's reception of East
German Premier Otto Grote-
wohl and at the announcement
that the UAR and East Germany
would exchange consulates gen-
eral.
In another move heralding a
possible break in relations be-
tween Bonn and Cairo, a Parlia-
mentary delegation which was
scheduled to visit Cairo during
a tour of the Middle East was
told to bypass the UAR capital.)
ROME, (JTA) — The Jewish
community of Egypt which ten
years ago numbered 66,000 men
and women is currently down to
13,000 or 14,000 concentrated in
Cairo and Alexandria.
Communities of Jews in the
smaller cities and towns of
Egypt no longer exist, Chief
Rabbi Haim Nahoum of Egypt
told Mrs. Tullia Zevi, JTA cor-
respondent in Rome, who was
one of the journalists to accom-
pany Italian Premier Amintore
Fanfani on a five-day visit of
state to the United Arab Re-
public. Mrs. Zevi also inter-
viewed the Jerusalem ex-Mufti
and the Apostolic Nuncio in
Egypt.
Rabbi Nahoum, who expressed
regret and concern over the
economic discrimination suffer-
ed by Egyptian Jewry, asserted
that "real religious persecution
does • not exist in Egypt. Jews
are free to celebrate their festi-
vals," he continued. "For Pass-
over, Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur the government sends an
official representative to the
services.
Other leaders of Egypt's Jew-
ish communities, with whom
Mrs. Zevi spoke, expressed great
apprehension over the continua-
tion • of Jewish community life
in Egypt and advocated greater
economic and spiritual assist-
ance by Jewish organizations.
They revealed that most Jews in
Egypt are now living on their
savings since more than 80 per-
cent of them have lost their
jobs.
They expressed the hope that -
representatives of Jewish organ-
izations would visit Egypt soon
to learn the desperate economic
situation of Egyptian Jewish in-
stitutions.
Monsignor Oddi, the Apostilic
Nuncio in Egypt, in his inter-

view with the JTA correspond-
ent, was pessimistic about the
possibility of a solution of the
Arab-Israel conflict in the near
future.
He acknowledged Israel's eag-
erness to reach an agreement
while, at the same time, the
Arabs are delaying until they
can grow stronger vis-a-vis Is-
rael.
The Vatican's representative
also expressed the view that a
decision over the status of the
Holy Places in Palestine must
also await developments. He ex-
pressed deep concern over So-
viet infiltration of Egypt, 'but
advised the West to be cautious
in criticizing President Nasser.
In his opinion, the Apostolic
Nuncio continued, Arab aspira-
tions toward unity are legiti-
mate and "I do not see who
could do better for Egypt than
Nasser."
The ex-Mufti of Jerusalem,
who collaborated with Hitler,
told the JTA correspondent that
the only possibility of reaching
a solution of the conflicts in
the Middle East is "to give the
cause of Palestine complete jus-

turn to. Rome from Cairo and
make his way to Isiael later on,

represented as indicating that
Britain was unwilling to aban-
don her markets to the Soviet
bloc and other countries.
