Nuclear arms
Senator says Soviet reduction plan is unique
Associated Press
WASH INC. I ON — Sen. Richard
Lugar, chairman of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee, says the
Soviet Union’s “unique” proposal to
cut nuclear arms 50 percent moves
the arms control process “miles
clown the trail toward some type of
agreement.”
“Oiving credit where credit is due,
and not (looking at it) as a propa
ganda ploy but as an interesting and
substantive proposal, the Soviet
deep-cut situation is unique,” the In
diana Republican said recently.
“The Soviets haven’t offered this
kind of thing before,” he said. “A
year ago they weren’t even at the ta
ble at all. The f act that they are there
and that they have made a (compre
hensive) proposal is significant," said
Lugar, a consistent supporter of
Reagan administration foreign pol-
icv.
Lugar’s statements, taken to
gether with last week’s comment bv
Vice President Bush that the Soviet
proposal was a “step in the right di
rection,” probably mark most the
positive assessment of the Soviet of
fer from ranking L'.S. officials to
date.
But Robert McFarlane, the presi
dent’s national security adviser, on
Sunday reiterated the administra
tion's warning that an arms control
agreement hinges on Moscow’s will
ingness to settle regional conflicts
and alter its human rights policies.
“But f or that to endure it has to be
sum hi tided by a climate of responsi
ble behavior,” he added.
W hen Secretarv of State George
P. Shultz goes to Moscow at the end
of the week for pre-summit plan
ning. there could be some progress
on such issues as air safety and
boundary rights, "if indeed the So
viet Union realh wants it," McFar
lane said.
“President Reagan, probable
more than on any other issue, be
lieves that his moment and his re-
ponsibility is to leave office with a
real reduction in nuclear weapons."
McFarlane said on CBS’s "Face 1 he
Nation."
Acknowledging strong L’.S. objec
tions to the Soviet proposal as it
stands, Lugar said he nevertheless
found it a positive base for negotia
tion as both nations prepare for the
summit meetinu.

Hussein has said he is unhappy

Hussein suggested last week he
was close to a showdown with Arafat.
“In terms of a lot of things that
have happened, we’re not very
happy,” Hussein said in a news con
ference.
He said the quest for peace had
been set back by the killing of three
Israeli tourists in Cyprus last month.
Israel’s retaliatory air raid on PLO
headquarters in Tunis on Oct. 1, the

Peres told an Israeli newspaper on
Friday: "If it is possible to oust the
PLO from the picture then one
should lx* a little more relaxed about
the international framework."
Israel will not talk with the PLO.
It seeks direct talks with Hussein or
with a joint delegation of Jordanians
and Palestinians not belonging to the
