Lebanon withdrawal plan hits snag
Tel Aviv (JTA) — The plan to
withdraw the Israel Defense
Force from south Lebanon ran
into problems this week over the
role the United Nations Interim
Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) will
play during the first stage of the
three-stage pullback approved by
he Cabinet Monday night.
The first stage calls for evacua-
ion of the IDF from the Awali
River line and the coastal town of
Sidon and its environs, to be com-
Aeted within five weeks. Defense
Minister Yitzhak Rabin an-
ounced immediately after the
'abinet vote that Israel would
,eek arrangements for the
Lebanese army and/or UNIFIL to
`- ake over the area.
But Undersecretary General
Brian Urquhart told Rabin at a
meeting Tuesday that such com-
mitment was not within the man-
late of UNIFIL and that he would
lave to refer the matter back to
JN headquarters in New York.
Urquhart reportedly said there
were "problems in principle" be-
„:ause the region of south Lebanon
assigned to UNIFIL does not in-
clude the area from which the IDF
will depart in the first stage of the
withdrawal plan. He said he
would ask the Secretary General,
Javier Perez de Cuellar, and
through him the Security Coun-
cil, to discuss changes in the UN-
IFIL mandate.
The UN diplomat flew to Israel
Monday night for another round
of talks with government leaders
in Jerusalem, Beirut and Damas-
cus in what has been called a
last-ditch effort to break the cur-
rent impasse between Israel and
Lebanon over a military security
and withdrawal agreement. He
met with Rabin and Chief of Staff
Gen. Moshe Levy at Defense
Ministry headquarters Teusday
and left at noon for Beirut. He was
expected to return to Israel before
the weekend.
Israel would like to see UNIFIL
troops patrol the region north of
the Litani. The Lebanese and Sy-
rians seem to insist that the UN
force confine itself to its present
zone of operations just north of the
Israeli border though not contigu-
ous to it.
Israel wants the strip im-
mediately north of the interna-
tional border in the hands of its
ally, the South Lebanon Army
(SLA), a Christian militia com-
manded by Gen. Antoine Lehad,
which would continue to operate
with IDF advisers after the-final
stage of the withdrawal plan
when all Israel troops will have
left Lebanese soil.
Meanwhile, Likud has become
increasingly restive over the
withdrawal plan, which the
Cabinet approved by a vote of 16-6
following two days of debate. The
party's Knesset faction is in-
censed because two Likud minis-
ters, David Levy of the Herut bloc
and Gideon Patt of the Liberal
Party, broke ranks to vote with
the Labor minister and their al-
lies in favor of the plan. Neither
minister had consulted the party
caucus before they voted.
Deputy Premier and Foreign
Minister Yitzhak Shamir, the
leader of Likud, told reporters
Tuesday that he did not like the
withdrawal plan because he
thought it was fraught with dan-
gers and contained no satisfactory
security arrangements.
In Washington, the Reagan
Administration welcomed the Is-
raeli move and said it could be a
"new impetus” for the Israeli-
Lebanese talks at Nakura.
"The United States welcomes
Israel's decision to withdraw its
forces from Lebanon," State De-
partment deputy spokesman Alan
Romberg said. He said it was
"consistent" with the U.S. effort to
bring about a withdrawal of all
foreign forces from that country.
Romberg would not comment
specifically about the plan, which
would be implemented next
month. But he noted that Israeli
officials have said that Israel now
plans to return to the talks at
Nakura.
