JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Israel feels the first round Of
the Lebanese national re-
conciliation talks in Geneva
ended fairly well from its
point of view.
The May 17 Lebanon-
Israel agreement is still in-
tact despite strenuous Sy-
rian efforts to have it abro-
gated, government sources
noted after Sunday's
Cabinet meeting here. They
added that Syria's desire to
replace Lebanese Prime
Minister Shafik Wazzan
with a more malleable
politician was also
thwarted.
"Not a bad balance sheet
so far," the Israeli sources
said. They cautioned,
though, that Lebanese poli-
tics are notoriously difficult
to predict — especially
given the precarious secu-
rity situation in various
parts of the country. The
second round of the Geneva
talks, scheduled to resume
Monday, could yet deal a
mortal blow to the May 17
agreement. •
The first round of the
talks ended last Friday
with the conference
mandating President
Amin Gemayel to Jaunc ►
a new diplomatic effort to
bring about Israeli with-
drawal. The president is
also to negotiate "on in-
ternational levels to as-
sure the total and abso-
lute sovereignty of Leba-
non over its entire terri-
tory."
Syrian efforts, through
Damascus' Lebanese
client-factions, to have the
May 17 agreement abro 7
gated failed against the
solid resistance of Gemayel
and some of the pro-
government factions.
A subsequent move to de-
clare the agreement "fro-
zen" was discarded in favor
of the more vague formula
empowering Gemayel to
negotiate on Lebanon's be-
half and report back to an-
other round of the talks
scheduled for mid-
November.
The Israeli sources said
that this mandate to
Gemayel meant that the
president had emerged from
the conference with his
standing enhanced. The
Syrian-backed opposition
factions had hoped for a
diametrically opposite out-
come.
. Last ... week
the
Lebanese factional lead-
ers unanimously adopted
a resolution mandating
Gemayel to fry to obtain
America's' intervention in
ending the occupation of
Lebanon by foreign
troops. The resolution
mentioned only Israel's
occupation, but spokes-
men for four of the fac-
tions supporting
Gemayel said the resolu-
tion indirectly, and with-
out mentioning Syria by
name, also calls for a Sy-
rian withdrawal.
The Christian Phalangist
spokesman, Alfred Maadi,
said the adoption of the
resolution by all the fac-
tions signified "a victory for
Lebanon as a united na-
tion." Veteran rightwing
Maronite leader Pierre
Gemayel, the founder of the
Phalangist Party and father
of President Gemayel, told
the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency that the resolution
as adopted was "the best we
could do."
The road to eminence and
power from obscure condi-
tion ought not to be made
too easy, nor a thing too
much of course.,
