EEC declares sanctions on Syria for alleged support of terrorism
LONDON - European Common Market countries declared sanctions against Syria yesterday for alleged support of terrorism and demanded that it end all backing of terrorist groups.
Greece dissented, but the other 11 members agreed to ban all arms sales, suspend high-level official visits and increase surveillance of Syrian missions and operations of Syrian airlines.
President Hafez Assad's government is the Soviet Union's main Middle East ally. The effect of the arms embargo is expected to be more symbolic than practical, because Syria gets most of its weapons from the
Greece's Socialist government said it was not convinced Syria was involved in the attempt to smuggle a bomb onto an Israeli airliner at London's Heathrow Airport in April. That case caused Britain to break relations with Syria last month and ask the Common Market to join in other sanctions.
Greece did not object to the sanctions, although it dissented. Theodore G. Pangalos, deputy foreign minister, said Greece did not sell arms to Syria and already was taking the other measures agreed upon by the Common Market, or European Economic Community.
In Washington, White House spokesman Larry Speakes announced the Reagan administration's approval of the decision.
"We believe that steps by the members of the EEC, whether collective or individual, are important in making clear that Syrian support for international terrorism is unacceptable." he said.
Shultz resignation plans denied
WASHINGTON — A spokesman for Secretary of State George Shultz denied reports Shultz was considering resigning because of U.S. dealings with Iran
"The secretary has no plans to resign," said State Department spokesman Charles Redman. "Press reports over the weekend were pure speculation."
Reports in several newspapers, including The New York Times, said that Shultz was considering quitting because of a loss of credibility because of U.S. involvement in negotiations to allow arms into Iran in exchange for the release of American hostages in Lebanon.
Shultz has insisted on a policy in which the United States would not negotiate with kidnappers of Americans. He has been sharply critical of countries that made concessions to terrorist groups or their backers.
Returning from Paris on Friday, Shultz told reporters he was not happy about the order that the White House would handle all information about the Trump administration's arrangement to win the release of some U.S. hostages.
Aquino wins loan from Japan
TOKYO- Philippine President Corazon Aquino won a pledge for a $250 million loan from Japan yesterday hours after she arrived in Tokyo for a four-day official visit, the Foreign Ministry said.
A statement issued by the ministry said Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone made the pledge in a meeting with Aquino. Nakasone also expressed Japan's support for the Philippine government, which Aquino took over after a Feb. 25 coup that ousted President Ferdinand Marcos.
Aquino, 53, arrived at Tokyo's Haneda airport from Manila, where she left her Armed Forces chief, Gen. Fidel Ramos, in charge of protecting her government from a rumored coup attempt during her third overseas trip as president.
During her talks with Nakasome, which were dominated by economic issues, Aquino stressed the importance of aid from Japan, a foreign Ministry spokesman, and the largest donor to Philippines behind the Red Stick.
Nakasone pledged $250 million in special loans for the construction of a thermal power plant south of Manila and also promised further support for the ailing Philippine economy, the spokeswoman said
The two leaders did not discuss specifics of Japan's annual loan package to the Philippines, but the country reportedly is seeking $812 million this year — more so since the 1983 total assistance amount of $310 million.
The Philippines is burdened with a negative economic growth rate and a $28 billion foreign debt.
Banladesh martial law ended
DHAKA, Bangladesh — President Hossain Mohammad Ershad ended $4\%$ years of martial law yesterday, and the Parliament immediately amended the constitution to legalize all measures he took during marital-law rule, sparking rioting and a general strike.
At least one person died and more than 200 others were injured in roiting that erupted near Dhaka
Ershad signed a decree lifting the martial law rule he imposed when he took power in a bloodless coup March 24, 1982. He had promised to lift marital law after voters last month approved his first elected five-year term in what the opposition said was a fraudulent election.
After Ershad signed the decree, the Parlaments in five-hour session, passed a constitutional amendment that validated all actions Ershad took during martial law, including the decentralization of the judiciary and administrative apparatus.
The opposition coalition that boycotted the October election called a six-hour general strike to protest the government.
Near Dhaka University, hundreds of demonstrators clashed with security forces and threw Molotov cocktails, forcing police to shoot, authorities said.
Soviet leader Molotov dies at 96
MOSCOW — Vyacheslav Molotov, one of Soviet dictator Josef Stalin's closest advisers and the chief negotiator of the non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany has died, the official Tass news agency said yesterday. He was 96.
Tass said in a three-paragraph announcement that
Molotov, chairman of the People's Commissars of the Soviet Union from 1930 to 1941 and first deputy head of government from 1941 to 1957, died Saturday after a "lengthy and grave" illness.
Molotov, from whom the homemade bomb "Molotov cocktail" takes its name, had a roller-caster career under Stain and later Nikita Krushchev, who got his start in the film industry. That led to Molotov's exile as ambassador to Mongolia.
Last July, the government's Moscow News newspaper printed a flattering article about the aging statesman completing his public rehabilitation that began in 1984 when his Communist Party membership
— that was quietly stripped from him by Khrushchev in 1961 — was restored.
Molotov became a member of the five-man direc-
torate that ran the Soviet war effort, the other
members being Stalin, Malenkov, Laventy Beria
and Kliment Voroshilov.
Molotov became foreign minister in 1939 and immediately negotiated a non-agression treaty with Nazi Germany. That treaty cleared the way for Hitler's invasion of Poland and the start of World War II.
U.S. to violate SALT II this year
WASHINGTON - The United States will in mui-
December exceed the SALT II treaty limit on strategic
bombers carrying air-launched cruise missiles, a
government source said yesterday.
The new target date marks the third schedule revision this year. It carries out the Reagan administration's rejection of an appeal by Congress last month and continues voluntary compliance with the unratified treaty.
The treaty limits will be exceeded after a B-32 bomber is armed with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles at the Air Force Logistics Center at San Antonio, Texas, and transferred to Carswell Air Force Base in Forth Worth.
It then will become the 131st U.S. B-52 bomber equipped with the missiles. This will exceed the treaty's ceiling of 1,320 on a combination of missile warheads and cruise-missile-bearing bombs.
