UNITED NATIONS
(JTA) — After several days
of private talks, the Secu-
rity Council met March 20
and issued a statement con-
demning "the outrageous
actions" of the Christian
militia in south Lebanon led
by Maj. Saad Haddad that
resulted in the killing of two
Nigerian soldiers of the
United Nations Interim
Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)
and the wounding of other
UN troops last week.
The council statement,
read by. Ambassador Peter
Florin of East Germany,
who is this month's
president of the Council,
called on "all those who
share in the responsibility
for this tense situation to
put an end to any act which
might increase the threat to
international peace and se-
curity and to put an end to
military assistance to any
forces which interferes with
UNIFIL in the exercise of
its mandate."
The "outrageous actions"
involved shelling by Had-
dad's Christian militia of
Kantara village. The
statement made no refer-
ence to Israel or to the
Palestine Liberation
Organization.
The statement also said
"this renewed and bar-
baric act" against the UN
peacekeeping force was
"a direct defiance of the
authority of the Security
Council and a challenge
to the mission of the
United Nations in main-
taining international
peace and security,
which cannot be
tolerated."
Diplomats here noted
that the statement issued
Friday referred back to the
resolution which estab-
lished UNIFIL in 1978.
That resolution called for
"strict respect" for Leba-
non's territorial integrity
and political independence
and called on Israel to cease
its military action and
withdrawal of its forces
from all Lebanese territory.
Israel had mounted a
brief land and air attack on
PLO targets in southern
Lebanon.
Yehuda Blum, Israel's
Ambassador to the UN, is-
sued a statement, after the
council meeting, declaring
the council statement was
"not to our liking." Blum
also said it was his under-
standing that the statement
was also not to the liking of
Jean Kirkpatrick, the U.S.
Ambassador to the UN.
Blum expressed "our
appreciation to the
United States and to Am-
bassador Kirkpatrick on
the principle and stand"
the United States took in
the debate on the state-
ment. This was under-
stoodto be a reference to
U.S. opposition, in the
discussions for a consen-
sus statement, against
singling out Israel.
He added that "while we
unreservedly condemn the
killing or harrassing of
soldiers serving the cause of
