Ben-Horin said "Israel is not in- terested in having the Arab states remain isolated and outside inter- national currents and trends for- ever." He moreover hinted that should Bonn's relations with the Arab states be resumed, the West Ger- man government could well use its influence in Cairo in a moderating sense. The Israeli ambassador said that he was "optimistic" about the fu- ture development of Israel-German relations and also condemned the Arab boycott which disrupts trade exchanges between Israel and the Federal Republic: , , - ABORTION INFORMATION - J.
