Sadat, Begin Seek Mutual Lebanon Accord
(Continued from Page 1)
brief drive through Ofira
itself in the afternoon.
The Israeli aide said he
had no doubt" that Premier
Begin would raise with
Sadat the Egyptian leader's
statement last weekend
that the Palestinian people
have an "eternal, religious"
right to Jerusalem. Sub-
sequent clarifications by
Sadat to a visiting group of
Knesseters that he was not
advocating the physical re-
partition of the city have
apparently not put Begin's
mind at rest.
The aide said that while
the content of Sadat's
Jerusalem declaration had
not broken new ground, its
timing was seen as signific-
ant in that it "casts a
shadow" over the "friendly
nature of the summit meet-
ing."
The aide added that the
Jerusalem issue had taken
on an immediacy with a
current argument over the
venue of the next round of
U.S.-Israel-Egypt talks on
the Sinai multinational
peacekeeping force.
Israel has denianded
that the round be held in
Jerusalem and the Egyp-
tians are understood to
be balking.
The aide said that Israel
had not made the same de-
mand during the drawn-out
(and now suspended) au-
tonomy talks becatfse
Jerusalem was one of the
disputed issues in those
talks. This was not the case
regarding the Sinai force
talks.
The premier, said the Is-
raeli aide, would doubtless
address himself to this

question too at his meeting
with Sadat.
On substantive issues of
the Sinai final withdrawal,
the aide said Israel would be
prepared to consider ad-
vancing its withdrawal by a
short period — if the multi-
national force was estab-
lished and in-place long
enough in advance and if
Egypt requested an early
pullback. He said that to
date, despite press specula-
tion, there had been no such
Egyptian request.
He said another issue
likely to come up at the
summit in this context
was Egypt's desire that
Israel leave facilities and
installations in Sinai in-
tact following its with-
drawal.
In particular, he said,
what was at issue was in-
stallations at the Israeli air
bases (Eitam, Etzion and
Ofira). He indicated that Is-
rael would not agree to
leave functional military
equipment for the use of the
Egyptians.
The peace treaty stipu-
lates that Egypt's use of
these airfields is restricted
to civilian purposes). If,
however, the equipment
was to be used by the U.S.
there will be U.S. troops in
the multinational force —
"that would be a different
matter," the aide said.
There have been reports
in Israel that Sadat and Be-
gin, perhaps in an unpub-
licized part of their summit
session, will discuss pre-
cisely this scenario —
within the long-term con-
text of the American "rapid
deployment force" currently
being developed by the U.S.
to be ready for action in the
Gulf region.
Begin and Sadat, accord-
ing to these reports, recog-
nize their joint strategic
interest in helping this
American force — and may
well regard the Sinai mili-
tary installations as a con-
venient means of doing so.
Last week Begin said
the peace treaty with
Egypt had made it possi-
ble for Israel to avoid a
call-up of reservists dur-
ing the missile crisis with
Syria.
Begin told an election
rally that if Israel had not
been at peace with Egypt a
massive call-up throughout
the country would have
been necessary.
Begin said Israel did riu,,
have to mobilize one army
unit. He said only a few
hundred people had been af-
fected by the missile crisis.
However, Israeli Chief of
Staff Gen. Raphael Eitan
indicated in a television
interview that Israel had
made "extensive prepara-
tions" during the missile
crisis to meet the Syrian
threat.
Argentina May Reject United States Request
to Involve Self in M.E. Multinational Force
RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA)
— Argentina is expected to
reject an American request
that it participate in the
multinational force that
will police Sinai after Israel
completes its withdrawal
from the peninsula in April
1982.
The apparent reason is
that the multinational force
is part of the Camp David
Accords which are not rec-
ognized by the United Na-
tions.
This was made clear in a
joint communique released
in Buenos Aires and
Brasilia following a meet-
ing between President Joao
Figueiredo of Brazil and
Argentine President Robert
Viola.
The two leaders called
for "a just and com-
prehensive peace which
has to take into serious
account the legitimate
rights of the Palestinian
people" and "also the
rights of all nations in the
region to exist within
recognized borders." The
communique was the
first official reference by
Argentina to "the legiti-
mate rights of the Pales-
tinian people."
Meanwhile, Italy also has
been asked to participate in
the multinational force and
diplomatic sources in
Jerusalem believe there is a
good chance it will agree. Is-
raeli sources also said there
are prospects that a second
European country would
-also agree.
The U.S., Israel and
Egypt who are presently
negotiating over a mandate
for the force are believed
anxious to have at least one
western European partici-
pant.
According to Israeli
sources, a second Latin
American country — possi-
bly Ecuador — will join.
Italy is regarded as a good
candidate because its colo-
nial era ended with World
War II and it never did have
a colonial heritage in the
immediate area. The Ita-
lians have a helicopter-
borne logistics unit with the
United Nations Interim
Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL).
If it agrees to participatein
the Sinai force it is expected
to provide the same type of
unit there.
Other countries that
have been approached
informally to contribute
to the Sinai force are Au-
stralia, New Zealand,
Nepal, Fiji- and Canada.
In a related development,
Nicholas Veliotes, assistant
secretary of state for Near
Eastern and South Asian af-
fairs, declared that the
United States expects to re-
sume the "stalled" au-
tonomy negotiations with
Israel and Egypt this fall.
Veliotes, answering ques-
tions at the State Depart-
ment's annual foreign pol-
icy conference for U.S.
editors and broadcasters,
said the June 30 Israeli
elections would not have
any effect on the negotia-
tions.
He said that when Secre-
tary of State Alexander
Haig visited Israel two
months ago, both members
of the Israel government
and the opposition ex-
pressed their "determina-
tion to engage again" in the
autonomy talks.
Cummings to Be U.S. Envoy
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Theodore Cummings of Los
Angeles, a long-time
member of President
Reagan's inner circle before
Reagan became President,
was officially named last
week U.S. ambassador to
Austria,,where he was born.
Owner of a retail food
chain in southern Califor-
nia, which he sold in 1959,
Cummings is now a
California civic leader,
philanthropist and inves-
tor. His standing with Re-
publicans was dramatized
in February 1980 at a silver
dinner tribute to his 25
years of service to the
Cedars-Sinai Medical Cen-
ter. The guests included Re-
agan, Henry Kissinger,
Gerald Ford, Edmund
Brown and Alan Cranston
(D-Calif.).
Cummings and Max
Fisher, the Detroit
Jewish leader, served as
honorary chairmen of the
National Coalition for
Reagan, founded shortly
after Reagan's nomina-
tion.
As the first Jewish trus-
tee of the University of
California, Cumminie
fought the conditions
tached to a huge Saudi Ara-
bian grant. He has contrib-
uted to a variety of Jewish
causes and led campaigns
for Israel Bonds.
