Greece Blocks
EEC Approval
of Sinai Force
PARIS (JTA) — Objec-
tions by the new Greek gov-
ernment, headed by
Socialist Premier Andreas
Papandreou, prompted the
10-nation European Eco-
nomic Community (EEC) to
postpone an announcement
approving decisions by
France, Italy, Britain and
Holland to participate in
the Multinational Force
and Observers (MFO) which
will patrol Sinai after Israel
completes its final with-
drawal next April.
Papandreou made it clear
that while the four EEC
member states are free to
send military contingents to
Sinai on a national basis,
Greece would oppose any
collective decision. The
EEC Charter requires all
joint decisions to be unani-
mous.
The new Greek regime is
opposed to the Camp David
agreements. Papandreou
has invited Palestine Lib-
eration Organization chief
Yasir Arafat to Athens and
plans to extend diplomatic
status to the PLO while
downgrading Israel's dip-
lomatic representation
which is already below the
ambassadorial level.
Germans Debate
Arms Sale Issue
BONN (JTA) — The rul-
ing Social Democratic Party
(SPD) and its junior coali-
tion partner, the Free
Democratic Party (FDP)
have begun a debate over
proposals to modify West
Germany's self-imposed
ban on arms sales to non-
NATO countries in un-
stable regions or which are
in a state of war.
The first meeting of the
joint body of the coalition
parties followed on the heels
of Saudi Arabian Crown Pr-
ince Fand's visit to Bonn
last week.
The Saudis are seeking a
major weapons purchase
deal with the Federal Re-
public which would include
powerful Leopard II tanks
and other highly sophisti-
cated military hardware.
