council, this, like the long

In Israel, Prime Minister
Menahem Begin and
Foreign Minister Yitzhak
Shamir have condemned
Carrington's statements,
and Carrington's linkage of
EEC participation in the
Sinai Multinational Force
and Observors (MFO) with
new statements on Mideast
negotiations outside the
Camp David process.
Israeli observers said the
warnings were intended
mainly to head off — or
moderate — an evolving
EEC statement on the Mid-
dle East which the Euro-
pean Common Market na-
tions plan to issue simul-
taneously with the an-
nouncement that several
member states would par-
ticipate in the Sinai force.
Britain, France, Holland
and Italy are expected to be
the European participants.
It is expected that the
EEC statement will re-
endorse the Venice declara-
tion and possible support
Saudi Arabia's eight-point
peace plan. The Knesset
this week categorically re-
jected both.
According to Israeli offi-
cials, Shamir wants to make
it clear that Israel would not
accept EEC participation in
the MFO with "strings at-
tached."

Private Ulpanim
Held in Moscow
ORT President
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
There are 57 teachers of
Hebrew and some 600 stu-
dents in small private ul-
panim scattered throughout
Moscow, according to a re-
cent immigrant, Michael
Nudler.
Briefing a session of the
"Brit Ivrit Olamit" ("World
Hebrew Union) executive in
Jerusalem this week, Nu-
dler warnedpf increased ef-
forts by the Soviet
authorities to hamper the
study of Hebrew. He said
there was no lack of
advanced-level textbooks,
but the ulpanim were
chronically short of basic-
level material.
Avraham Shenker, the
WHU chairman, called on
groups the world over in-
volved in teaching Hebrew
to "extend practical and
moral support" to the Mos-
cow ulpanim. The executive
passed a resolution con-
demning the Soviets' perse-
cution of the ulpanim as
contrary to Soviet law itself,
and called for public pres-
sure to be brought to be on
the Russian government.
