Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin appear at a news conference.

Rabin And Peres
Are At Odds

Jerusalem (JTA) — Differ-
ences have emerged between
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin and Foreign Minister
Shimon Peres over strategy
in the Middle East peace
process, with Mr. Rabin
preferring that an Israeli-
Palestinian declaration of
principles be specific and
Mr. Peres favoring a vaguer
formulation.
The differences in em-
phasis became apparent dur-
ing the visit this week of
American emissary Dennis
Ross, whose aim was to
bridge the gaps between
Israelis and Palestinians on
a joint declaration.
Mr. Rabin's office pressed
for precise wording, while
the Foreign Ministry pre-
ferred more flexible lang-
uage that could be agreed
upon by both sides more eas-
ily.
Mr. Ross, the U.S. coor-
dinator of the Middle East
peace talks, left Israel for
the United States after a
weeklong tour of the region
that included stops in Egypt,
Syria and Jordan produced
few tangible results.
Mr. Peres expressed the
view that the potential
bones of contention in the
negotiations should be left to
the end. In the meantime, he
suggested, the differences
should be bypassed by con-
centrating on issues for
which agreement could be
reached.
Mr. Peres said that a
written document on deli-
cate issues such as
Jerusalem and the jurisdic-
tion over the proposed
autonomy could widen the
gap instead of narrowing it.
Mr. Rabin's office, on the
other hand, wanted more
precision in the wording of
the negotiated document to
prevent "unpleasant sur-
prises in the future."
The Palestinian delegation

appeared to agree with Mr.
Rabin in wanting clarity.
"If you have a clear set of
principles," said Palestinian
spokeswoman Hanan
Ashrawi, "then it becomes
easier to talk about
modalities."
Failure to reach an under-
standing on the declaration
of principles, said Ms.
Ashrawi, would mean there
could be no agreement on a
starting point.
In that case, she sug-
gested, the present
framework of the peace pro-
cess would come to end and
one would have to think of
alternatives.
Alternatives, she sug-
gested, could involve
"higher leadership contacts
on both sides" or perhaps
discussion of the permanent
status of the territories
rather than merely the
interim status.
Ms. Ashrawi hinted at two
developments this week.
One was the possibility of
pushing up the level of
negotiations to direct talks
between the Israeli govern-
ment and the leadership of
the Palestine Liberation
Organization.
The other was the ac-
celerated negotiations bet-
ween Jordan and the PLO on
establishing a confederation
between Jordan and the ter-
ritories.
According to reports from
Amman, high-level officials
of Jordan and the PLO met
and established six working
committees to strengthen
ties between Jordan and the
administered territories and
explore the possibility of a
future confederation.
Palestinian sources in
eastern Jerusalem said such
a confederation could offer a
solution to the differences
between the Palestinians
and Israel over the future
fate of the territories. ❑
