New Zealand’s ban on U.S. ships
may cost the country politically
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The United
States has warned New Zealand’s
new Labor government that its pol
icy of banning U. S. nuclear vessels
may soon have heavy economic and
political costs for the country.
The warnings came publicly from
two influential members of Con
gress, Rep. Kika de la Garza, D-Tex.,
chairman of the Agriculture com
mittee, and Rep. Stephen Solarz, a
member of the House Foreign Af
fairs committee.
There also were private warnings
from the Pentagon and State De
partment in response to the New
Zealand government’s decision to
follow through on its campaign
promise to ban nuclear powered or
nuclear armed U.S. ships from the
country’s ports.
U. S. officials, including Secretary of
State George Shultz, warned the new
government in Wellington that a ban
on some U.S. ships in New Zealand
would be inconsistent with provi
sions of the ANZUS (Australia-New
Zealand-United States) Defense
Pact.
Solarz said the New Zealand gov
ernment’s decisions “will produce
the result of ending the alliance.”
He said the ban on some U. S.
ships, even those that do not carry
nuclear weapons but are nuclear-
powered, would mean the United
States would have to end its commit
ment to New Zealand’s defense by
the end of the year, and that ANZUS
would be a bilateral partnership be
tween Australia and the United
States.
But there also is a powerful politi
cal movement in Australia to follow
the lead of the New Zealand govern
ment.
In addition, on the side of the
United States is the fact that there is
a large surplus of dairy products
from New Zealand for which the
country is seeking markets in the
U.S. and elsewhere.
De la Garza has been quoted in
New Zealand newspapers warninj
that country’s marketing agreement
with the United States are in gre!
danger.
But a staff aide to the commitK 1
said, “There is no direct press©
What the chairman (de la Garfl
said was that in the past whs
friends of New Zealand, which i#
eludes him, have come under prtf
sure from the U.S. dairy lobby tott
strict New Zealand imports into lit
country, he has talked about theit
portance of the New Zealand It
fense role. The new government 1
attitude will make it more difficult
resist domestic pressures.”
A State Department official sait
“In the past there would be domesti
pressure to reduce New Zealand
casein and milk powder imports,bt
the Pentagon would step in and s!
‘Lay off. These guys are our friend
important allies.’ What is happenii#
now is that the Pentagon is no long#
protecting them, and now thedair
lobby is free to kick them around.'
