78 Friday, January 18, 1985 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Agnes and Bernard Klein, the family of the late NEWS MELVIN S. STEIN MORICE GROSS 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.
