Defense and foreign ministers of Warsaw Pact members for mally dissolved v the Eastern Bloc YaZOV alliance’s military functions in a 20- minute ceremony at a luxury West ern hotel on the Danube River. Countries signing the agreement — the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Ro mania — agreed to meet in Prague by July 1 to disband the alliance’s re maining structures. A meeting planned later this week in Budapest to disband Comecon, the Soviet-led equivalent of the Eu ropean Common Market, was post poned indefinitely. Foreign Minister Alexander Bessmertnykh and Defense Minister Dmitri T. Yazov of the Soviet Union looked glum as they put their names to the document ending the alliance Moscow forged in 1955 as a coun terweight to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. By contrast, Jiri Dienstbier and Lubos Dobrovsky of Czechoslovakia smiled broadly. Both men, foreign and defense minister respectively, are former dissidents who fought the orthodox Communist regime imposed by a Warsaw Pact invasion that ended the liberal “Prague Spring” of 1968. “The military bloc system as such has come to an end today,” Foreign Minister Geza Jeszensky of Hungary told reporters after the ceremony. Poland’s foreign minister, Krzysz tof Skubiszewski, said: “When you deprive the Warsaw Treaty of its military essence, it becomes more or less an empty shell.” The documents signed Monday provide that the Soviet-dominated military command will be disbanded by March 31 and six secret agreements that bound Eastern Eu rope to Moscow will be annulled. Dienstbier and Jeszensky of Czechoslovakia indicated the War saw Pact’s other functions would be abolished by the end of the year. Disagreements between the Sovi ets and their former East European satellites remained beneath the sur face. The Soviets did not appear at a news conference after the meeting and Hungarian officials said they may already have left Budapest. ity il INSIGHTS: A Roundtable Discussion PRESENTS... MSC Political Forum A Focus on BLACK LEADERS past, present, and future PROFESSOR GREG MOSES Department of Philosophy, TAMU WEDNESDAY, FEB. 27 1 2:00 pM 178 MSC Bring Your Lunch and Opinions With You All Are Welcome The views expressed in this program do not necessarity represent the views of MSC Political Forum or the MSC. Soviet officials were reluctant to comment on the meeting. Their ab sence from the news conference sug gested Moscow wanted the Warsaw Pact to die quietly. The Soviets also insisted that the agreements an nulled Monday remain secret. Dienstbier said the annulled docu ments were essentially uninteresting and that the continued secrecy showed the Soviets had not dis carded old ways. In a veiled dig at Soviet conserva tives, Jeszenszky noted in the closed meeting that “even at present, opin ions emerge according to which the Warsaw Treaty is part of stability and military balance in Europe,” according to remarks made available to reporters. “More numerous are those, how ever, who characterize it as an orga nization resting on mistaken funda ments which has outlived itself,” he added. lib; •ThIntic soortwcar BAHIA MAR RESORT SOUTH PADRE ISLAND SPRING BREAK "91" ^nnm Compare to $130.00 and/or $150.00- being charged by others on South Padre Island.
