GENEVA (JTA) — The
controversial United
Nations-sponsored confer-
ence on Palestine ended
here last week with what
must have been a collective
sigh of relief from many of
the participants that an in-
ternational embarrassment
was over. -
Both as a productive de-
bate and as a media event,
the 10-day conclave of Arab
states, their Third World
and Communist bloc allies
and a handful of Western
nations was, in the un-
abashed words of the
Kuwaiti ambassador, "a
flop."
Since it was not expected
to generate much more than
the usual anti-Israel
rhetoric, it received little
media coverage from the
start.
The
deliberations
began with a quarrel.
Victor Gauci, Malta's
ambassador to the UN
who had been elected
rapporteur, stunned the
delegates by announcing
that his government, a
strong supporter of the
Palestinians, had in-
structed him to withdraw
from the conference until
a row over an Arab
boycott of a Maltese firm
doing business with Is-
rael is resolved.
The conference proceded
without a rapporteur. It
ended on an equally sour
note when Mustafe Niase,
the foreign minister of
Senegal who served as con-
ference president, refused to
hold a closing press confer-
ence because he "did not
want to be politically
engaged."
What little of substance
the conference produced
was predictable. The final
resolution upheld "the right
of the Palestine Liberation
Organization, the represen-
tative of the Palestinian
people, to establish its own
independent state in Pales-
tine."
It called for an interna-
tional peace conference on
the Middle East, under UN
auspices with the participa-
tion of the PLO, the U.S.
and the USSR a revival of
the Geneva Conference
format of 1967 which has
been gathering dust for 16
years.
Finland and Sweden,
two of the Western states
participating, urged
some mention of "the
right of Israel to exist."
But the Arabs refused
and would agree only to
affirm "the right of all
states in the region to
exist within secure bor-
ders."
They rejected outright a
paragraph in the original

Dayan Tribute

draft resolution which con-
demned all acts of terrorism
in the Middle East.
Israel's Ambassador to
the UN in Geneva, Ovadia
Soffer, stated in a press
communique that "the con-
ference, which cost the UN
$7 million, achieved only
one result: it enabled the ex-
tremist Arabs and their al-
lies to repeat once again
their anti-Israel declara-
tions."
