to Syria, the Syrians are
continuing their efforts to
acquire a stockpile of
nuclear weapons, and Iran is
building up a reserve of long-
range missiles.
The Tel Aviv University
conference was organized by
its geography department to
mark the 700th anniversary
of the establishment of the
Swiss Confederation.
Professor Yoram Dinstein,
president of the university,
said he was surprised that
no one ever proposed that
Israel become a confedera-
tion. "Why not have 10 can-
tons, six of which will have a
Jewish majority and four an
Arab majority?" he asked.
Mr. Ne'eman promptly
threw cold water on that
idea. He pointed to the
upheavals in federated
states like Yugoslavia and
the breakup of the Soviet
Union along ethnic and na-
tionalist lines to make the
point that "1991 is not a
good year" to propose a fed-
eral system.

Roland Dumas
Visits Israel

Paris (JTA) — French For-
eign Minister Roland Dumas
will make a three-day visit
to Israel, the Foreign Min-
istry has announced.
Mr. Dumas, who has not
visited the Jewish state
since taking office, will be in
Jerusalem from Jan. 8 to 10.
The Foreign Ministry said
his trip is part of an ongoing
effort by France to promote
Middle East peace. Israeli
observers said Mr. Dumas
was doing his best to rees-
tablish a French role in the
Middle East peace process
from which it feels left out.
Mr. Dumas has already
been to Lebanon and Jordan,
but a planned visit to
Damascus was abruptly
called off last week.
The Syrians were angered
when they learned that the
French minister intended to
raise the question of Syria's
treatment of its Jewish
population with President
Hafez al-Assad, as well as
Syria's haven for wanted
Nazi war criminal Alois
Brunner.
Mr. Dumas will travel to
Jerusalem accompanied by
Israel's outgoing ambas-
sador to France, Ovadia
Soifer. It will be Mr. Soffer's
last official trip before his
tenure ends.
The veteran Israeli diplo-
mat plans to take a leave of
absence from the foreign
service to run for election to
the Knesset next year.
