Call The Jewish News 354.5959 Washington (JTA) — Israeli Housing Minister Ariel Sharon met here with Housing and Urban Devel- opment Secretary Jack Kemp, despite an attempt by the White House and State Department to prevent the session from taking place. They did succeed, however, in preventing Mr. Kemp from playing host to Mr. Sharon at his HUD office. The May 1 meeting was held instead at the Israeli Em- bassy. At issue was Mr. Sharon's opposition to U.S. proposals to advance the Middle East peace process and his in- sistence on forging ahead with new settlements in the administered territories, which the Bush administra- tion considers an obstacle to peace. Mr. Kemp had invited his Israeli counterpart to meet with him during Mr. Sha- ron's current visit to the United States, where he is addressing various Jewish groups. Secretary of State James Baker heard about the planned meeting while on his Middle East tour last week, State Department spokeswoman Margaret Tutwiler said. She said Mr. Baker sent a "heads up" message to the White House saying that for a member of President Bush's Cabinet "to receive Minister Sharon, who was publicly opposing the presi- dent's policy regarding Mid- dle East peace, would not be the appropriate thing to do at this time." "That was the end of his involvement" in the matter, Ms. Tutwiler maintained. But the White House ap- parently suggested to Mr. Kemp that he not see Mr. Sharon in his office. Secretary Baker has been annoyed by Mr. Sharon's vigorous support for Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Just beforeMr. Baker arrived in Israel, members of the militant Gush Emunim movement moved mobile homes into two new loca- tions in the West Bank, in a move seen as a direct slap at the U.S. secretary of state. The secretary denounced the buildup during a news conference in Damascus, Syria. During a news conference at the National Press Club on May 1, after his. meeting with Mr. Kemp, Mr. Sharon said neither he nor anyone in the government knew in advance that the settlers' mobile homes would be set up overnight. But he said the "policy of building Jewish com- munities in Judea, Samaria and Gaza is not a personal plan or initiative," but rather the policy of the Israeli government. Mr. Sharon said he was not upset by Mr. Baker's failure to meet with him on his three visits to Israel in the last seven weeks. He said the prime minister is the one who speaks for the govern- ment of Israel with foreign leaders. The meeting with Mr. Kemp dealt with the issue of Soviet Jewish immigration and absorption, Mr. Sharon said. He noted that Mr. Kemp, a former Republican congressman from New York, had long been a sup- porter of the struggle for Soviet Jewish emigration. Mr. Sharon reiterated that Israeli policy is not to direct Soviet Jews to the West Bank, and he said that fewer than one percent of them had settled there. He said there are 150 Jew- ish settlements in the West Bank and that they were built on the hills to provide security for Israel. He said for that reason no matter what solution is eventually reached, Israel will never give up these settlements. They are not an obstacle to peace, he maintained. "If Israel feels secure, Israel will be willing to take more daring steps for peace," he explained. But during his National Press Club news conference here, Mr. Sharon said Israel must worry about its securi- ty because, as Americans might say, "we live in a high crime neighborhood." N Ex-Olim Stay In Berlin Berlin (JTA) — Only about 15 of approximately 300 Soviet Jews in Berlin who left Israel in January are willing to return to Tel Aviv. Upon arriving in Germany, the ex-Soviets claimed they were escaping Iraqi Scud missiles falling on Israel. When their temporary visas expired last month, they balked at returning, saying they were had been mistreated in Israel. / N K
