FOR SELECTION IN FLORENTINE,

Egypt "after all is part of the
Arab world" and therefore
is likely to stiffen its atti-
tude in the wake of UN reso-
lutions hitting the Jewish
state.
Following the June 30
UN vote, the Israel Foreign
Ministry issued a statement
rejecting the vote. It said
that "Debates of this kind
will not determine the fu-
ture of Jerusalem."
U.S. Secretary of State
Edmund Muskie said that
the U.S. abstention was "a
positive, not a negative act."
He said he wished "ther
was another way" of con-
tending with UN resolu-
tions that "undermine" the
Camp David process.
Muskie made his remarks
to reporters after a long con-
ference at the White House
following the Security
Council vote and against
the background of angry
protests from American
Jewish leaders and others
who felt the U.S. should
have vetoed the resolution..
The secretary of state
equated the series of seven
anti-Israel actions by the
Security Council over the
past four months with "un-
ilateral acts by the parties
themselves." While he did
not mention Israel, the re-
ferences seemed to apply to
Israel since the U.S. has not
at any time blamed Egypt
for "unilateral acts."
Muskie told reporters
that the Jerusalem issue
was discussed very
thoroughly with the
President and other advis-
ers" before the UN vote.
"We are being faced con-
stantly with these resolu-
tions in the United Nations
whose effect is — whether
intentional or not — to
undermine the negotiations
now going on —,the Camp
David process.
"They are not construc-
tive in the sense that they
do not substitute for the
process. They divert atten-
tion from it. They under-
take to prejudge actions by
the parties themselves.
They undertake to prejudge
some of the issues which
will be negotiated or
scheduled. They have the
same effect as unilateral ac-
tions by the parties them-
selves," he said.
Muskie contended that
"the only way" to keep the
Camp David process going
"is by abstention" on such
resolutions. "We ought not
be diverted,' ' he said.
