Crisis is Averted as Sadat Accepts Sinai UN Force

(Continued from Page 1)

Egypt agreed Wednesday
to extend the mandate of
the United Nations Emer-
gency Force in the Sinai,
one day before it was sched-
uled to expire. Ambassador
Abdel Meguid of Egypt met
with Secretary General
Kurt Waldheim and Eu-
genio Plaja of Italy, presi-
dent of the Security Coun-
cil, informing them that
President Sadat's reply to
the appeal made to him by
the Security Council to ex-
tend the UNEF mandate
was "positive."
Ambassador Meguid told
reporters after his
25-minute meeting with
Waldheim that Egypt
agrees to a three-month ex-
tension of UNEF.

The Security Council is
expected to vote for the
extension of UNEF with 13
members for, and China
and Iraq abstaining. The
Security Council, in a 13-0
vote, appe4ed to Sadat to
extend the mandate after
Egypt announced last
week that it would not do
so.

Meanwhile, the response
of President Sadat to Is-
rael's latest proposals for an
interim settlement in Sinai
remained uncertain follow-
ing the Egyptian leader's
televised speech in Cairo
Tuesday. But Egypt's agree-
ment to extend the UNEF
mandate raised hopes of a
successful outcome to the
current negotiations.
Sadat in his Tuesday
speech declared that Egypt
retained the option of war
or peace and would exercise
either in accordance with its
national interests.
Last. Thursday, Jacob
Doron, acting permanent
representative of Israel to
the UN, met with Waldheim
to reportedly discuss the sit-
uation in the Sinai in light
of Egypt's stand.
Doron submitted a letter
from the Israel government
which reaffirmed that
"Israel will pursue the dis-
cussions—with the help of
the good offices of the
United States—for the
achievement of an interim
agreement with Egypt."

The letter also stated
that Israel "is observing
its commitments under the
disengagement of forces
agreement with Egypt on a
basis of reciprocity. If
Egypt is interested in not
harming the agreement, it
will also have to honor the
maintenance and author-
ity of the UNEF, which
constitutes an integral
part of the disengagement
agreement."

Waldheim sent firm in-
structions to the United
Nations peace-keeping
forces in the Middle East to
remain in their positions
and perform their duties as
usual after last week's an-
nouncement by Egypt.
But Israeli military cir-
cles appeared less concerned
about the situation in Sinai

U.S. Secretary of State
Henry Kissinger met
Wednesday at the White
House with Israeli Ambas-
sadoe Simcha Dinitz but a
White House spokesman
declined to comment.

It was believed that Kis-
singer and Dinitz discussed
a report from Herman Eilts,
the U.S. ambassador to
Egypt, on Egypt's views on
Israel's latest proposal for a
second interim Sinai accord.
Eilts returned to Cairo Sun-
day carrying with him the
Israeli proposals Dinitz
presented to Kissinger late
last week. Eilts made an ini-
tial report Monday.
Despite the crisis over
UNEF, a mood of optimism
prevailed in Israel over the
progress of negotiations for

an interim accord. Many
observers predicted a suc-
cessful conclusion although
Jerusalem and Washington
still must wait for Egypt's
response expected within a
clay or two.
The Cabinet's statement
noted pointedly that the
proposals included "geo-
graphical principles", an
intimation that those prin-
ciples represented the fur-
thest. limits of Israeli con-
cessions on territorial
matters.

According to informed
sources, the Israeli pro-
posals sent to Washington
envisage four to six Ameri-
can-manned surveillance
stations at strategic points
in the passes area which
would provide intelligence
information to both sides.

In addition, two surveil-
lance facilities would be
manned by Israel and Egypt
respectively, Israel would
retain control of the existing
facility at Umm Hashiba
west of the Gidi pass, which

amount to an Israeli
enclave in an area from
which Israeli forces would
he withdrawn.
The Egyptians would be
expected to build their own
surveillance facility east of
the Gidi pass. Both facilities
would be "supervised" by
American personnel though
operated by Israelis and
Egyptians respectively.
Israel would retain the
eastern approacheS to the
Sinai passes and would con-
tinue to hold the strategic
Jebel Gidi, a mountain lo-
cated between the passes
with a commanding view of
both of them.

Dinitz Says U.S., Israel Agree
on Latest M.E. Peace Proposal

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Ambassador Simha Dinitz
said that basically the
United States and Israel
saw "eye-to-eye" on Israel's
latest proposals for an in-
terim settlement with
Egypt in Sinai, but wouldn't
say that the U.S. has given
those proposals its bless-
ings.
"I wouldn't want to call it
blessings in the name of
somebody else but . . . I
would say that conceptually
we see eye-to-eye on the
basic elements of such a
proposal," the Israeli envoy
said in the course of an in-
terview with Barbara Wal-
ters on the NBC-TV "Today"
show Monday morning.
During the long exchange
of questions and answers,
Dinitz indicated that the
Israeli proposals agreed to
at a cabinet meeting in Je-
rusalem Sunday and dis-
patched to Washington
along with a detailed map
for conveyance to Egypt,
represented 'a departure
from the Israeli position
last March when the
"shuttle" talks conducted by
Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger were suspended.
The Israeli AmbassadOr
acknowledged that the Is-
raeli proposals envision an
American presence in Sinai
in a surveillance role which
he indicated would be an ex-
pansion of the present
American surveillance of
the disengagement agree-
ments by aerial reconnais-
ance.

the new Israeli lines north
of the passes and the Gulf of

seemed clear, nevertheless,
that Israel intends to re-

Sheikh paralleling but not
close to the coastal road that
would be ceded to Egypt.
