Belgium (JTA) — Belgian
Foreign Minister Willy
Claes returned from his
meeting with Yassir Arafat
in Tunis and said the Pales-
tinian leader warned him
the Middle East peace
negotiations "will be very
difficult" to renew unless
the deportation crisis is
resolved.
The chairman of the
Palestine Liberation Organ-
ization was referring to the
415 Palestinians activists
deported by Israel to
southern Lebanon last
December.
No doubt about it, Birmingham's most preferred
men's clothier has reached an all-time low.
Mr. Arafat told Mr. Claes
he wanted the European
Community to play a more
active role in the Middle
East peace negotiations,
Belgian sources said.
"These negotiations began
more than one year ago and
the result is null," the PLO
leader added.
Mr. Claes said he visited
Mr. Arafat as part of an
"information mission" in
preparation for Belgium's
chairing the European
Community in the second
half of this year.

dent Saddam Hussein.
Mr. Claes already visited
Israel and Egypt last
December as part of an effort
to become more involved in
the peace process.
In the meeting with Mr.
Arafat, Mr. Claes insisted on
the need for Israel to imple-
ment the U.N. Security
Council resolutions regar-
ding the Palestinians
deported by Israel.
"We must work to imple-
ment the U.N. resolutions,"
Mr. Claes said, hinting that
a "compromise acceptable
for all the parties can be
found."
Mr. Claes told Belgian
reporters that he would
report on his visit to U.S.
Secretary of State Warren
Christopher in a meeting in
Washington.
Mr. Claes also used the op-
portunity of his visit to
Tunisia to meet with Tuni-
sian President Zine El
Abidine Ben Ali.
The Belgian foreign min-
ister stressed that the devel-
opment of relations between
Europe and the Arab coun-
tries of North Africa was be-
ing impeded by Libya's
refusal to cooperate in the
inquiry on the explosion of
the Pan Am plane over
Lockerbie, Scotland, which
caused the death of 170 peo-
ple in 1989.
Jerusalem Foundation
Chapter In Austria
Vienna (JTA) — Teddy
Kollek, mayor of Jerusalem,
announced here the forma-
tion of the Jerusalem Foun-
dation Austria, which will
be the ninth chapter of the
International Jerusalem
Foundation abroad.
Mr. Kollek, who grew up
in Vienna and left for
Palestine in 1937, along
with Viennese Mayor
Helmut Zilk, have taken
several steps to break the ice
between Austria and Israel.
Relations between the two
countries were strained dur-
ing the six years that Kurt
Waldheim, charged with
Nazi activities during World
War II, served as president
of Austria.
The city of Vienna has
pledged $2 million to build a
Jewish- Arab teachers'
facility.
And Austria has agreed to
put up the same amount to
renovate the Gymnasia Ivrit
Rehavia in Jerusalem.
Mr. Kollek and his Vien-
nese friends have succeeded
in recruiting a prominent
group of citizens for the
committee of the Jerusalem
Foundation Austria.
It includes Zilk, Austrian
Minister of Culture and Ed-
ucation Rudolf Scholten,
former Austrian President
Rudolf Kirchschlager and
the cardinal of Vienna,
Franz Knig.
The renovation of the
Rehavia Gymnasia in
Jerusalem will take one
year.
