Quayle Supports
Shamir's Proposal
In a recent interview, the vice president
expressed support for Israel — but
criticized further West Bank settlements.
WOLF BLITZER
Capital Correspondent
W
ashington — Vice
President Dan
Quayle does not shy
away from the growing im=
pression in both Washington
and Jerusalem that he may
eventually emerge in the
Bush administration as
Israel's great champion. In-
deed, he appears to welcome
it.
"Clearly," he said in an ex-
clusive interview at his White
House office, "I have a deep
affection and a lot of friends
and interest in the security of
Israel. I have developed that
throughout my years and
have done a lot in the Senate
to be of assistance to Israel on
various matters."
Quayle insisted, however,
that President George Bush
is also a strong supporter of
the Jewish state. "The Presi-
dent understands and has a
strong appreciation for the
strategic relationship bet-
ween the United States and
Israel," he said. "He has a
long comprehension and is
very much a student of the
Middle East, and of par-
ticular Israel."
Asked how strategically im-
portant Israel is to the United
States, Quayle replied: "Let's
look at the world, and let's
look at the Middle East, a key
region of the world . . . Israel
is a friend in an area where
we need to have more
friends."
Despite differences, the vice
president said the current
U.S.-Israeli relationship is
good. He said, however, that
Israeli settlements in the
West Bank and Gaza con-
tinue to concern the
administration.
Quayle strongly urged
Israel to stop all new settle-
ment activity. "These an-
nouncements of new set-
tlements are politically pro-
blematic even if the Israelis
don't go through with it," he
said.
The vice president's aides
later said that he had issued
several similar appeals
against more settlements
during private meetings with
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Shamir and other visiting
Israeli officials.
Quayle said Israeli leaders
had explained to him that an-
nouncements of new set-
tlements do not necessarily
mean the settlements will be
funded or approved by the
Knesset.
Asked whether he an-
ticipated an imminent an-
nouncement on more set-
tlements, he replied firmly: "I
hope not."
Despite the administra-
tion's disapproval of con-
tinued settlements, Quayle
said the Bush administration
was actively trying to ad-
vance the Arab-Israeli Peace
process. Sitting in his office in
the West Wing of the White
House, the vice president ex-
pressed strong support for
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Shamir's four-point peace
initiative.
"I view Shamir as being
sincere," he said. "I think it
was an offer he made in great
sincerity; there were a lot of
deliberations. It was a thing
that I know they wrestled
with in their coalition govern-
ment."
Although Quayle said he
was confident that the issue
"Israel is .a friend
in an area where
we need to have
more friends."
of supervising Palestinian
elections could be worked out,
he would not comment on the
matter of East Jerusalem
Palestinians voting in the
elections.
"The whole issue of
Jerusalem — I don't think we
have to right now get back in-
to it and start visiting it," he
said. "Let's leave Jerusalem
for the time being."
The 42-year-old Vice Presi-
dent, who visited Israel while
he was senator in 1983 and
1987, said that Shamir's call
for Palestinian elections has
promise. "It will be in-
teresting to see how Egypt
[responds] and what [Presi-
dent Hosni] Mubarak is able
to do and not do now that they
are full partners back with
the Arab world."
Quayle called on the Arabs
to recognize Israel's
legitimacy and to accept that
it will "always be there .. .
That would be good starters
and you could build from
there. I hope that eventually
happens."
But first, he said the
