U.S. welcomes PLO move
to support Mid-East peace
WASHINGTON (AP) — 'Ihn
State Department reacted posi
tively Monday to the Palestine
Liberation Organization's vip
paront endorsement of Middle
bast peace talks and said it
would consider resuming talks
with the FLO under certain
conditions.
Sint e February, the Hush ad
ministration has Ixinn trying to
arrange negotiations among Is
rael, Arab states and Palestini
an representatives Until late
last week, only the Palestinians
had not at least tentatively en
dorsed tier peace conference.
Then, the Palestine National
Uounr il. the highest legislative
body of the PLO, voted to en
dorse a Palestinian delegation's
participation In the negoti
ations and dropped Abu Abbas,
who Washington accuses of Ixi
ing a terrorist leader, from its
ruling executive council.
Abbas, head of the Palestine
National Front, based in Bagh
dad, is suspected by IJ.S. offi
cials of being implicated in the
abortive raid on Tel Aviv
beaches May 30, 1000
State Department spokes
woman Margaret Tutwiler said,
"We've certainly noted Aim
Abbas' departure from the ex
ecutive committee." Still, she
said, "that does not satisfy all
of our concerns.”
The terms for resuming direct
talks with the I’l.O arc the same
cited by Bush in suspending
the dialogue, she said.
The president had called on
Arafat to condemn the Tel Aviv
raid. Bush said a general I’LO
statement denouncing attacks
on civilians was "not suffi
cient.'' Bush also said that the
people responsible for the raid
would have to be disciplined.
As Bush and Baker have pur
sued arrangements for a peace
conference, the administration
has insisted it is not dealing
with the I’LO and has assured
Israel the organization would
not have a role in peacemaking
The effect was to diminish
FLO prestige, although the Pal
estinians Baker met with insist
ed they were PLO-approved.
The actions by the Palestine
National Council in Algiers last
week could be an attempt by
Arafat to raise the PLO's stature
and to have at least an indirect
impact on the negotiations.
Meanwhile, Tutwilor said
Baker expected to meet again
soon with two of the Palestini
ans, Faisal Hussein! and Han.in
Ashwari, to complete the terms
for Palestinian participation in
the peace talks.
