Common market
fixes budget crisis
United Press International
FONTAINEBLEAU, France —
The Common Market nations
agreed Tuesday on a solution to a
long-festering budget crisis that had
brought the world’s largest trade
bloc to the brink of political and eco
nomic collapse.
“It comes as a great relief for us
all,” said Paul Cerf, spokesman for
the executive commission of the 10-
nation European Common Market.
“After all, it would have been un
thinkable that Europe could have
fallen apart over a few million dol
lars.”
The compromise capped a five-
year struggle by British Prime Min
ister Margaret Thatcher to obtain a
reduction of Britain’s payments into
the European community budget.

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emi
rates — Iran accused Iraq of shelling
three of its towns, killing three peo
ple and wounding four others, in a
new violation of a U.N.-mediated
cease-fire protecting border cities.
The official Iranian news agency
IRNA, quoting a military spokes
man, said Iraqi artillery shelling de
stroyed many homes, in which
“three civilians were martyred” and
four others, including a 2-year-old
girl, were wounded.
IRNA said the shelling came as a
three-man U.N. team arrived in
Tehran to monitor the June 12
agreement to halt attacks on civilian
areas.
The truce, mediated by U.N. Sec
retary-General Javier Perez de Cuel-
Britain currently pays more into
Common Market coffers than it re
ceives in benefits and agricultural
subsidies.
The agreement opened the way
for President Francois Mitterrand of
France, head of the 10-nation trade
community, to open discussion on a
fresh round of cooperative ventures
ranging from culture to space re
search.
Under the compromise reached
in Fontainebleau castle, Britain will
get an $800 million cash rebate this
year, although it will remain a net
contributor of about $400 million.
More importantly for Thatcher,
the agreement contained a long
term solution.
lar, has been violated several times
by both combatants, according to of
ficials from Iraq and Iran.
Both countries also reported mili
tary clashes along their 730-mile
border. Iran said 15 Iraqi troops
were killed or wounded since Mon
day.
An Iraqi military spokesman,
quoted by the official Iraqi news
agency INA, said Iraqi helicopter
gunships destroyed a boat east of the
Tigris river, killing its occupants.
The agency also said Iraqi front
line units killed one Iranian, cap
tured two others and destroyed mili
tary equipment in the central sector
of the war front.
The new outburst of shelling
came as Jordan’s King Hussein ar
rived unexpectedly in Saudi Arabia.
Hijacked
plane flys
to France
United Press International
CAIRO, Egypt — Two men hi
jacked a domestic Iranian flight with
145 passengers and crew Tuesday
and forced it to the Persian Gulf
state of Qatar where they freed all
but three hostages and proceeded to
Cairo, apparently on their way to
France, officials said.
The state-controlled Middle East
News Agency said the two hijackers,
whose nationalities were not known,
requested political asylum in Egypt
upon landing in Cairo but their re
quest was turned down.
After negotiations by radio, Egyp
tian authorities agreed to provide
the Iranian Boeing 727 airliner with
fuel and permit it to resume its
flight, the agency said.
An official at Cairo Airport’s con
trol tower said the aircraft landed at
the airport at about 3:40 p.m. EDT,
after a three-hour flight from Qatar.
Authorities said the two hijackers
and three crewmembers of the air
craft were taken to an air force base
of the military annex at the airport
late Tuesday while the plane was be
ing refueled.
The plane was parked at the mili
tary airfield at the airport under
heavy guard. The Middle East News
Agency said the hijackers tried at
First to land in Aswan, in southern
Egypt, but were denied permission.
The agency also said the plane
was refused permission to land in
Cairo and yet it made a forced land
ing because it was running low on
fuel.
An Egyptian official said the “new
incident will be handled in the same
way as the old one,” referring to an
Iranian military plane comman
deered to Egypt about two weeks
ago.
Four Iranian military officers
aboard that plane were refused asy
lum in Egypt but given fuel to con
tinue their flight. They are now in
France where their request for politi
cal asylum is under study.
The Iranian news agency IRNA
quoted the head of the national car
rier, Iran Air, as saying the identity
of the hijackers was not clear “but
they are trying to fly to France and
seek political asylum.”
It was the second Iranian plane in
two weeks to be hijacked to the Gulf
and then flown to France for politi
cal asylum.
