Semplhter Washington (JTA) — The United States is sending former Sen. Rudy Boschwitz (R-Minn.) to Ethiopia to discuss the plight of Ethio- pian Jews and possible solu- tions to the country's quarter-century-old civil war. White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said that President Bush is sending Mr. Boschwitz as his "personal emissary" to meet with Ethiopian President Mengistu Haile Mariam. The announcement came one day after Mengistu declared his willingness to negotiate with rebel leaders over the country's future. Rebel forces are said to be in control of about half of Ethi- opia, including Ambo, the site of a major munitions plant 75 miles from Addis Ababa, the capital. The flow of Ethiopian Jews to Israel has been hovering at between 500 and 1,000 a month since January, with a two-week interruption in March. While that is the highest sustained level ever, Jewish groups say it would take an- other two years to get all of the Jews out of Ethiopia. The American Association of Ethiopian Jews estimates that there are 18,000 Jews left in the country. "Our concern is that this rate is too slow," Mr. Fitz- water said April 24. "Sen. Boschwitz will ask them to increase this rate, on hu- manitarian grounds." But the United States, Israel and Jewish groups here are also concerned about what might happen to the flow should the rebel forces successfully over- throw the Mengistu government. The rebels have accused Israel of supplying cluster bombs and other weaponry to the Ethiopian government in recent years. A well-informed Jewish activist here said the U.S. thinking may be that there is "greater urgency" now to secure the swift emigration of Ethiopian Jews, since it is "clear that the rebels have made significant incur- sions." The activist said that with the longevity of the Mengistu regime unclear and in the face of uncertain- ty over the rebels' stance toward Ethiopian Jewish emigration, the U.S. goal appears to be to "get 'em out while we can." Mr. Boschwitz, accom- panied by three administra- tion officials, was scheduled to arrive in Addis Ababa on April 26. The delegation plans to "raise the emigra- tion of Ethiopian Jews" and is "also interested in discussing any U.S. effort or helpfulness in resolving the internal conflict there," Mr. Fitzwater said. Accompany- ing Mr. Boschwitz will be Ir- vin Hicks, deputy assistant secretary of state for African affairs; Robert Frasure, di- rector of African affairs on the National Security Coun- cil; and John Hall, the State Department's Ethiopian desk officer. In a statement, Mr. Boschwitz said the pur- pose of the trip is to "avert widespread loss of life and bloodshed." He said that "things may well be reaching a crisis level" in E- thiopia. The Minnesota Repub- lican, who was the lone Senate incumbent defeated in last November's elections, is currently chairman of a lumber company he founded and is also president of the Jewish Institute for Nation- al Security Affairs. Interreligioils 'Trialogue' New York (JTA) — Stress- ing the need for enhanced communication among re- ligious faiths in the after- math of the Persian Gulf war, Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti has an- nounced the creation of a new international organiza- tion, called the Association for Trialogue, to involve Jewish, Christian and Moslem groups. Its goal is "to reflect together on ways of bringing down the barriers" of "stereotyped ideas and er- roneous perceptions," Mr. Andreotti told American Jewish leaders at a breakfast here sponsored by the American Jewish Com- mittee. The Association for Trialogue was formally founded March 10 in Mr. Andreotti's office in Rome, and is jointly chaired by the prime minister; Sir Leon Tamman, a Geneva-based Sephardic Jewish busi- nessman; and Camelia Sadat, daughter of the late Anwar Sadat. Raffaello Fellah, a Libyan Jew, heads the executive committee. N
