N EWS I Bush Explains U.S. Veto Of U.N. Probe Washington (JTA) — Pres- ident Bush has defended the U.S. decision late last week to kill a Security Council resolution that would have sent a three-member U.N. delegation to investigate the recent upsurge of violence in the administered territories. The situation leading up to the U.N. vote was com- pounded by the "outrageous guerrilla attack launched against Israel," Bush said at a joint news conference with Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. He was referring to the aborted seaborne attack by heavily armed terrorists from the Palestine Libera- tion Front on two Israeli beaches packed with Israeli vacationers over the Shavuot holiday. The U.S. vote against the resolution, which was sup- ported by the 14 other mem- bers of the Security Council, blocked its adoption. The United States is one of five permanent Security Council members with that veto power. The resolution, introduced by the Arab bloc, called for a three-member commission of the Security Council to in- vestigate the "policy and practices of Israel, the occu- pying power" and the "deteriorating situation" in the Israeli-administered ter- ritories and East Jerusalem. The delegation was to report back by June 20, after which the council would reconvene to discuss "ways and means of ensuring the safety and protection of the Palestinian civilians" in the territories. It was proposed May 25 in Geneva, where the Security Council convened for a spe- cial session to hear Palestine Liberation Organization leader Yassir Arafat address the upsurge of violence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip after a lone Israeli gunman shot seven Palestin- ian workers to death May 20 near the Israeli town of Rishon le-Zion. "We do not oppose the sec- retary-general sending emissaries to the Middle East," Bush reiterated at his news conference Sunday. "We do favor represent- atives of the secretary- general going there. " "United States policy is un- changed and is clear: We op- pose new settlements in the territories beyond the 1967 lines," he said.
