Allies dismiss Reagan’s Libyan sanctions
By The Associated Press
West Germany said today it would not
join the United States' economic sanc
tions against Libya, and other American
allies, including Britain, Italy. Spain and
Belgium, expressed skepticism about the
impact the sanctions would have on in
ternational terrorism.
At a Washington news conference
Tuesday night. President Reagan said he
had signed an executive order declaring
Libya “a threat to the national security
.. .of the United States.” and banned all
direct trade with the North African
country.
“We call on our friends in Western
Europe and elsewhere to join with us in
isolating” Libyan leader Col. Moammar
Khadafy. Reagan said.
The United States and Israel contend
Libya supports a terrorist group that has
claimed responsibility for., the Dec. 2.7
twin terrorist attacks on.Rome and Vieri
na airports, which left 19 people dead,
including five Americans.
Friedhelm Ost, chief spokesman for
the West German government, said at a
news conference in Bonn that the
government decided today it will not
participate in the boycott.
“It is our experience to date that
economic sanctions do not lead to the
desired results,” Ost said.
He said the government would take
part in U.S.-proposed consultations over
the terrorist issue, but declined to say
what measures West Germany would
consider supporting Ost said the Bonn
Cabinet's decision was based on W'est
Germany ’s extensive economic and trade
ties with Libya.- '
He said Libya was Bonn's thirddarges.t.
supplier of oil in the first 11 months of "
1985. West Germany gets most of its oil
from Britain, and also .exports froth "
A spokesman at the British Foreign Of
fice. speaking on condition of anonymi
ty. told reporters today. "Our general at
titude towards sanctions is that they
don’t bring about the desired results."
Britain's trade with Libya was about
$650 million in the first 10 months of
1985. with $290 million in exports to
Libya and $360 million in imports from
Libya.
In Rome, the Italian foreign ministry
said Italy would consider economic -or
political measures against countries in
volved in terrorism only in "strict
association^ with other Common Market
nations. ° . '• • .' v.°

ly. then 1 would expect that Australia •
would be a part of it." .
But he stressed that the decision
