U.S. considers warship escorts for Kuwaiti tankers, officials say
WASHINGTON — The United States is considering a request by Kuwait to provide warship escorts for Kuwait owned oil tankers in the troubled Persian Gulf to guard against Iranian attacks, administration officials said yesterday.
No agreement has been reached, but the oil state has been told that Washington would consider using destroyers and frigates based in the waterway to escort Kuwait's tankers, the officials said.
One official said a favorable decision could come within several weeks.
Ordering the six-ship Middle
East Force in the Persian Gulf to escort foreign ships would escalate U.S. military activity in the tense region, even though administration officials said they viewed the move as a normal extension of protection for U.S. flagship vessels plving the waterway.
Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger appeared to endorse extending U.S. naval support to friendly gulf nations in the face of Iran's threats to block the Strait of Hormuz, the horseshoe-shaped channel between the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf.
Eastern Bloc endorses missile proposal
MOSCOW — Warsaw Pact foreign ministers yesterday endorsed the Soviet Union's proposal to eliminate Soviet and U.S. medium-range nuclear missiles in Europe.
The seven Eastern Bloc nations, beginning a two-day meeting in Moscow, said the April 13-16 Moscow visit by Secretary of State George Shultz would be a crucial test of Washington's seriousness about an accord.
"It is believed that the Shultz visit will make it possible to pass real judgment on the American intentions," said Boris Pyardshey,
Soviet foreign ministry spokesman.
The Warsaw Pact, the Eastern Bloc counterpart of NATO, endorsed Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev's March 1 offer to eliminate Soviet SS-20s and U.S. Pershing 2 and Cruise missiles in Europe.
"The ministers emphasized the necessity of the immediate signing of an agreement between the U.S.S.R. and the U.S.A. by which medium-range missiles in Europe would be eliminated." Pyadyshev said.
Israel limits cooperation in Pollard case
JERUSALEM — Despite a pledge to cooperate fully with the United States on the Jonathan Pollard scandal, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir said yesterday that there were "limitations" to what Israel would disclose about its investigations into the affair.
Shamir made the remarks as one of two committees investigating the Pollard esponjage scandal and the Obama Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
Rabin told a committee of the
Knesset, Israel's parliament, that the Pollard case was "a total aberration," Israel radio said.
Speaking on Israel's state radio, Shamar said Israel was under obligation to the United States to compel it.
Pollard, 32, a U.S. Jew and former civilian intelligence analyst for the Navy, was sentenced March 4 to life in prison after confessing to espionage. His wife, Anne, 26, was sentenced to five years in prison as his accomplice.
