THE KISSINGER FORMULA

Dr. Kissinger's peace formula, which has been accepted by both Egypt and Israel, can be described as a reasonable compromise on the steps leading to a just settlement of the Middle East conflict. The Arab demand for Israel's withdrawal to the October 22 cease-fire positions has been conceded. On their part, the Arabs will lift the blockade of Bab al-Mandeb Strait. At the same time, the prisoners of war will be exchanged. While this agreement should help to break the post-1967 stalemate, it does not compromise the Arab stand on the implementation of the U.N. Resolution of November 1967. As such, all peace-loving forces in the world will welcome the formula, which must be carried out with the utmost speed. Despite Israel's black record of flouting international and bilateral accords and resolutions, there is hope that this time a chastised Israel may see the compulsions of sanity. Thanks to the Arabs' success in redeeming the honour of their armies, the timely and effective use of the oil weapon, the demonstration of Arab solidarity, and the isolation of the Israeli aggressors and their patrons in the world, the forces of justice are in a better bargaining position now than ever before.

The terms of the Kissinger formula bear this out and the same factors should encourage the hope that Israel may at last shed its illusions.

If the latest initiative is to bring a real settlement and the U.S. is serious about convincing the Arabs and the civilised world of its sincerity in helping to achieve peace, it will be necessary to maintain the present tempo on all fronts. The Arabs can hardly afford to relax and Washington may have to work hard to restrain the Israeli hawks. If the latter have learnt the lessons of the fierce 17-day war, they should accept the verdict of history that they can neither survive in a hostile Arab world, nor pursue a policy of aggrandisement and territorial gains any longer. If not, the non-implementation of the U.S. formula will aggravate the dangers of another round of fighting which will not only exact a terrible cost from the belligerents but also create a situation in which even the super-Powers may find themselves overtaken by events. The risks involved are too great to be ignored by any party. Pakistan as a staunch friend of the Arabs will keenly watch the progress of the peace moves.

Kissinger's Pakistan Visit

Accompanied by senior American Officials, Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger is on a difficult mission. After visiting several Arab capitals, he has arrived in Pakistan to hold talks with Prime Minister Bhutto who had taken a clear and enthusiastic stand during the recent Arab-Israel conflict.

Dr. Kissinger is visiting Pakistan following Prime Minister Bhutto's tour of the United States and we believe he is fully briefed on the problems this country faces. He also knows what changes Pakistan can bring in the Asian situation and also that after restoration of peace in the Middle East, the Soviet Union will concentrate on Asia. In this situation Pakistan will have to play an important role in the international politics.

Pakistan has a unique position in the Muslim world. Besides being an ally of Iran and Turkey, it has considerable influence in the Persian Gulf area. It is the strategic importance of the Muslim world that the Soviet Union is piling up arms in Cairo, Baghdad and Damascus. These developments make it necessary for the U.S. to realize the importance of the area and also to understand what are the real challenges in this region.

In view of the expected changes in the international situation, U.S. should also examine how best it can protect its interests in South Asia.

BHUTTO: "LASTING PEACE IN MIDDLE EAST CAN ONLY BE ESTABLISHED BY JUSTICE -- PAKISTAN ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP IN ESTABLISHING JUST AND LASTING PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST"

RAWALPINDI, Nov. 9 (By Staff Reporter) -- Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who arrived in Islamabad this evening from Tehran, met with Prime Minister Bhutto. He briefed the Prime Minister on the latest situation in the Middle East and told him of the peace plan for the area. The meeting, in which they also discussed bilateral relations, lasted for an hour.

Minister of Law and Parliamentary Affairs Abdul Hafeez Pirzada; the Minister for State for Defense and Foreign Affairs, Aziz Ahmed; and the Secretary of the Foreign Office, Agha Shahi, assisted the Prime Minister, while Assistant Secretary of State for Near East and South Asian Affairs, Mr. Sisco, a senior official of the U.S. State Department, and the U.S. Charge d'affaires in Islamabad, Mr. Sidney Sober, assisted Dr. Kissinger. Mr. Bhutto hosted a dinner for the party.

Speaking at the dinner, Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto said that lasting peace in the Middle East can be based on justice only. He said Pakistan has a great interest in the Middle East. Mr. Bhutto told Dr. Kissinger that his government takes pride in, and is happy, that he came to Pakistan for an exchange of views on the situation in the Middle East, because Pakistan has an historical and traditional interest in the Middle East.

He said Pakistan views with interest the American efforts for a solid solution of the Middle East issue, because the world has been perturbed over this crisis for the past ten years. And because Pakistan takes a great interest in the Middle East, he said, it has adopted "a policy which we feel is based on principles." He added that Pakistan has very cordial relations with the Middle East and the Arabs, and "we will not abandon our support for the search of a just solution of the problem. We will continue to take interest in this issue, and will keep up our contacts with you and with our Arab friends. Pakistan is willing to give whatever help it can to solve this issue in accordance with international law."

The Prime Minister pointed out that Dr. Kissinger will cross the Karrakurram mountain range for a visit "to our friend and neighbor, China." He compared the U.S. Secretary of State with a farmer who traveled very far to sow. He said that whatever number of seeds he sowed, he would drop a few enroute. Some would be picked up by the birds, but whatever seeds he sowed for a honorable and lasting solution would result in very valuable harvest, and he added, "we will view with great interest your and your country's efforts for peace and prosperity in the world." He said Pakistan has very cordial relations with America, and they will grow further.

Dr. Kissinger, in his very brief speech, said that after travelling through the war-torn areas of the Middle East, talking with Mr. Z. A. Bhutto is a pleasure. He said Pakistan and America have common goals and principles, and that President Nixon has sent him to try to solve the Middle Eastern problem.

He praised Prime Minister Bhutto's leadership and said he had met with him two years ago when Pakistan was passing through a very critical period, and at that time, he said, America also supported Pakistan. Dr. Kissinger said Pakistan has historic relations with the Middle East, and its relations with America are also cordial. Thus, he said, it can help in the search for peace. Pakistan has helped America in establishing contact with China, and therefore Pakistan can never forget America, he added.

Vital stake in
Mid.-East-Bhutto

Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto said on Friday night that Pakistan had a "vital stake" in the Middle East region where he believed justice alone could bring about an enduring peace.

He was speaking at a dinner he gave to American Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger.

The Prime Minister told Dr. Kissinger that his Government felt delighted and honoured that he could find time to visit Pakistan in order to "hold discussions with us on the current problems affecting the Middle East" where Pakistan has historical and traditional interest.

Pakistan, he said, would watch with interest the American efforts—"more than that bless your efforts"—for a comprehensive settlement of the Middle East problem which had troubled the world for over a

generation not only in the Middle East but also in the neighbouring States.

Pointing out that Pakistan has a vital stake in the region, he said Pakistan had taken a position which it believed was based on principles.

Pointing out further that Pakistan had "very good" relations with the Middle Eastern and Arab States, the Prime Minister said "we shall not allow our objectivity and sense of justice to be compromised in the very delicate, painstaking and lugubrious processes that are involved in finding a settlement to the problems of the Middle East".

He said Pakistan would continue to take interest and remain in touch with "you and Arab friends", adding that in whatever modest contribution Pakistan could make for a just and lasting settlement in conformity with international law "we shall always be available".

## PAKISTAN'S STAND BASED ON PRINCIPLES

Kissinger: PAKISTAN'S AND AMERICA'S PRINCIPLES AND OBJECTIVES ARE THE SAME

Rawalpindi, Nov. 9 (by Staff Reporter) -- Pakistan's Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto said that Pakistan was deeply interested in the Middle East and Pakistanis are sure that justice alone can bring durable peace in the area.

Prime Minister Bhutto was speaking at a dinner hosted by him in honor of U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Addressing Dr. Kissinger, Prime Minister Bhutto said his government was happy that Dr. Kissinger could find the time to visit Pakistan at a time when he was busy finding solution to the Middle East tangle, in which Pakistan was deeply interested. Pakistan's stand on the issue was based on principles, he said.

Mr. Bhutto said: "We have very good relations with the Middle East countries and we can very well realize the difficulties you faced while you were looking for a solution to this very critical problem. We will continue to take an interest in the matter and shall keep in touch with you and our Arab friends."

Pakistan and America have very close relations and we are proud of it, Mr. Bhutto added. In conclusion Mr. Bhutto said Pakistan desires peace in the sub-continent, the Middle East and all over the world, and will do anything possible for the sake of peace.

Replying briefly to the welcome speech by Mr. Bhutto, Dr. Kissinger said it was extremely pleasant to exchange views here in Pakistan after a tour of the war-torn Middle East. He said Pakistan's and America's principles and objectives were common ones.

Dr. Kissinger said Pakistan had historic relations with the Middle East and close relations with the United States, hence it can help in the search for peace. He disclosed that when he went to Peking in 1971 on his secret mission, Prime Minister Chou En-lai said that Pakistan had played a vital role in the restoration of U.S. -Sino relations, so that America and China could work for peace. The Chinese Prime Minister said America should remember Pakistan for her services, because he said, "the bridge does not become useless just because it is once crossed," and America has not forgotten Pakistan, Dr. Kissinger added.

Dr. Kissinger met Prime Minister Bhutto here today and held vital talks with him on the Middle East situation and matters of mutual interest. Dr. Kissinger arrived here this evening from Tehran. He was accorded a warm welcome at the Islamabad International Airport. Among those present at the airport were Federal Education Minister Abdul Hafiz Pirzada, Minister of State for Defense and Foreign Affairs Aziz Ahmed, Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Agha Shahi, and officials of the American Embassy. Dr. Kissinger was accompanied by U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Joseph Sisco and 20 senior officers. The Secretary of State leaves here tomorrow morning for Peking.

RIYADH, Nov. 8: US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, coming from discussions in Cairo and Ammn, began talks with King Feisal of Saudi Arabia here tonight before flying to Teheran and Islamabad tomorrow.

His high-speed diplomatic tour of five Arab capitals is apparently going well for him to remark that his meeting with President Sadat in Cairo resulted in "good progress towards a framework aimed at just and lasting peace in the Middle East."

That things are moving fast was evident from a telephone call from President Nixon to Kissinger as he was having lunch with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ismail Fahmy and the air-dash made from Cairo by his Deputy Joseph Sisco to Tel Aviv.

Israeli Cabinet met in extreme secrecy for three hours to discuss what Sisco had brought from Cairo.

Almost simultaneously President Sadat dispatched a special envoy Ashraf Marwan, to Syria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Libya and Algeria to brief his principal Arab allies on Cairo talks.

No official communique has been issued on the Cairo talks, but Egyptian sources have otherwise been quite communicative, perhaps for the benefit

### DOUBLES
can be called a spectators game. For thrill and enjoyment there is no better game to watch then a evenly matched doubles.

Although doubles is an interesting game to watch it is very difficult to play. It is more a game of angles. Power play has to be sacrificed in order to angle the shots. The strategy of good doubles is to take the net position while displacing your opponents by angled shots and forcing them to return a highball and then punching through the openings.

Since it is a great advantage to be at the net, in top class tennis it is a common sight to see all the four players at the net volleying hard to win the point.

A server should make it a point to put his first service in but it should be deep. A deep service will give you a better chance to rush to the net. It also makes it difficult for the opponent to rush into the net while returning the service.

A cannon ball service is not of any importance in doubles game. The return of a fast service is also fast and you do not have the time to reach the volleying position beyond the service line. The first service may not go in all the time and therefore, you are wasting your energy unnecessarily without deriving any benefit.

It is most important to volley the return of your service from inside the service line. If you receive a high return go for outright winner by volleying hard at the right hip (if the opponent is a right handed player) of the stationery man nearest to the net.

If the return of service is low, volley back as hard as possible at the feet of the incoming player so that there are chances of his returning a high ball for an easy kill.

The best place to serve in the first court is near the centre line. The opponent

Arrival of Expert Negotiator

Since the success of Vietnam peace conference U.S. Secretary of State, Dr. Henry Kissinger is known as an expert on delicate and intricate negotiations. Currenoly he is on a tour of the Middle East and some Asian nations. So far he has met with several Arab and non-Arab heads of State and his meeting with Egyptian President Saadat has been the most important one. The atmosphere that prevailed at that meeting can be judged from the subsequent announcement that Washington and Cairo are going to resume their diplomatic relations. Seen in the perspective of American hesitation to finance the Aswan Dpm, American support to the Israeli aggression of 1967, and also the supply of arms to Israel during the recent conflict, the Cairo announcement is not a mean deffusion. In the face of extreme tensions and hostilities this reconciliation is reflective of President Saadat's foresight and Kissinger's capacity to handle difficult negotiations.

After his talks in the Middle East, Dr. Kissinger arrives in Pakistan for meeting with Prime Minister Bhutto. The reasons for his visit here are known to some extent. Pakistan's stand on the ME crisis is well-known that thought not in Arab nation Pakistan has supported the just cause of the Arabs and has been an equal partner in their struggle. Pakistan has brotherly ties with Arab countries and it can help in finding a just solution of the ME crisis. In view of this special ability we consider the arrival of President Nixon's expert negotiator a good oman.

When Dr. Kissinger meets with Prime Minister Bhutto, he will be facing a Muslim leader who has enthusiastically supported the Arabs. In this situation the exchange of views between the two leaders who are well informed persons, would be useful. The world at large will find in Pakistan an enthusiastic supporter of justice, and we believe that this meeting will help to promote cause of peace in the Middle East through Pakistan.

Another side to Dr. Kissinger's visit to Pakistan is his visit to Peking, on which he will embark from Islamabad after his talks. China has attained an important position in the comity of nations because of its straight and direct approach to the world problems. This is very fortunate that standard bearer of justice in the international body, China is a close friend of Pakistan and it is because of this affinity that the stand of countries on the Middle East crisis is almost identical and will remain so in the future. Pakistan and China together can help promote peace in the Middle East.

In view of the past experience about Dr. Kissinger, it is hoped he will examine all aspects of the situation which is threatening the world peace, and will be able to find some durable solution. Pakistani leaders will be prepared to help and play an important role for this purpose.

EGYPT AND ISRAEL ACCEPT KISSINGER FORMULA

Cairo, Nov. 8 (Radio Report) -- Both Egypt and Israel have accepted the interim peace plan presented by U.S. Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger. Although none of the two countries have officially announced the acceptance of the peace plan, yet it is believed that during his Middle East tour Dr. Kissinger was successful in bringing round the two countries to accept the plan. Presently the purpose of the plan is to strengthen the current cease-fire. Israeli cabinet today considered the plan and is believed to have accepted it. Israeli Parliament will now ratify it. This four-point plan assures the resumption of supplies to the besieged third army. Second point relates to negotiations between Israeli and Egyptian Army officers to amend in the cease-fire line. The other two points concern with the exchange of prisoners of war and ending of Bab-el-Mandab blockade.

Prime Minister Bhutto, it is expected, will impress upon Dr. Henry Kissinger the urgency of acceptance of the legitimate rights of Arabs because a durable peace in the area will remain a far cry unless the Arabs considered any settlement arrived at as fair and just.

The Prime Minister has been playing a very important role in supporting the Arab cause and in bringing about a harmonisation of a policy amongst other Muslim nations in favour of the just cause of the Arabs and for this he recently visited Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia.

month in which he spoke about war and peace and the news- men asked: "Which way does it look today?"

President Sadaat replied: "Let us await the answer of our friend Dr. Kissinger".

President Sadaat told news- men that a decision would be made later today concerning possible resumption of relations between Egypt and the United States.

"Wait until tonight", Mr. Sadaat said after the meeting in reply to newsmen who asked whether diplomatic relations, were being resumed.

Egypt broke off relations with the United States on June 6, 1967, on the second day of the June 1967 war.

Dr. Kissinger arrived here last night on the third leg of a tour of five Arab capitals.

Dr. Kissinger and Egyptian Foreign Minister Fahmy had already had a short informal talk at the arrival of the Ameri- can Secretary of State this morning.

## CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM

With the failure of Rogers' peace mission in mind, most Egyptian officials reacted to today's Sadaat-Kissinger meeting with a wait-and-see attitude, ranging from scepticism to cautious optimism, despite Dr. Kissinger's optimistic remark.

The Cairo daily, Al-Ahram, indicated today that Egypt attached top priority to a peace conference in the Middle East at which all problems between Israelis and Arabs would have to be solved.

Such a conference, the paper hinted, might, under certain circumstances, be more important for Egypt than a prior withdrawal of Israeli troops to the ceasefire lines of Oct. 22, bitherto Cairo's condition for its participation in a peace conference.

The paper warned against tacking partial aspect of the Middle East problem because such a procedure would only once more help to "freeze" the problem and lead to another war.

## ZAYYAT-HEATH TALKS

In London, a foreign office spokesman said the Egyptian Presidential Advisor, Dr. Mohammad Hassan Al-Zayyat discussed the Middle East and oil problems for 80 minutes today with British leaders, including Prime Minister Edward Heath and foreign Secretary Sir Alec Douglas-Home.

The spokesman said the talks covered the Middle East in all its aspects and that they were held in a friendly atmosphere.

Dr. Zayyat and British leaders also discussed the declaration passed on Tuesday by Foreign Ministers of the nine nations of the European Economic Community (EEC), calling on Israel to withdraw from territory it occupied during the 1967 war. No further details of the talks was disclosed.

## MEETS POMPIDOU

Earlier on Monday, Dr. Zayyat met President Pompidou in Paris.

Later, he told a Press conference: We want Europe to act neither in favour nor against Israel ... but for the sake of justice and peace".

The European nations know the Middle East intimately. They know that throughout the centuries we have fought for our freedom, dignity and for peace based on justice, he said.

Dr. Zayyat warned there was a big danger of a resumption of fighting in the Middle East unless Israeli forces withdrew to the Oct. 22 ceasefire line.

"This is a pre-condition, he said, a precondition put not by Egypt, but by the UN Security Council. This is the first step before we can move towards peace talks", he added.—Reuter DPA/UPI.

Editorial of Jang, November 8, 1973

DECISIVE MOMENT

With the arrival of Dr. Henry Kissinger, US Secretary of State, the Middle East crisis has entered a decisive stage and now the resumption of war in the region depends on the fate of talks he is to have with the Egyptian leaders.

The delicate point in the talks will be the withdrawal of the Israeli troops to the Oct. 22 cease-fire line, and the success of Dr. Kissinger's mission will hinge on how well he resolves this very delicate problem. This is very clear that Israel has occupied certain areas on the western side of Suez after the cease-fire and in a couple of days had been able to cut the road between Suez and Cairo. Now Israel is refusing to withdraw behind the cease-fire line because it will open road to the Egyptian third army.

"If the Israelis do not withdraw behind the agreed cease-fire line we are afraid the UN resolution calling for cessation of hostilities will be ineffective and questions like return of POWs and proposed peace conference will run into a stalemate. The danger of resumption of war in the region will loom large on the horizon. For this Dr. Kissinger will have to give importance to the Egyptian demand and put pressure on Israel to comply with this.

"Israel and America should see the direction of the wind.

"Most world opinion and particularly the resolution of the E.C.M. nations has supported the Arab stand against Israel and this is a great success of the Arab nations. The European countries realize that embargo on oil will create great difficulties for their industry and halt production and that is why they have fully supported the Arab nations.

"Now that the wind is blowing against Israel and the friends of America have withdrawn their support to U.S. and Israel, Arabs should not withdraw from the battlefield. They also should not weaken their oil weapon until Israel withdraws behind the 1967 line.

The Cairo talks have entered a decisive moment. President Saadat who has the leadership of all the Arab nations should stick to his stand with rigidity. He should not listen to any suggestion which does not restore line of communication between Cairo and the beseiged third army on the western bank.

At this stage the greatest danger is that Israel might restart the war and the need is for the Arabs to remain on alert.""

Arabia and Iran. Prime Minister Bhutto, since the beginning of last round of Arab-Israel war has been actively supporting Arab cause and demanding withdrawal of Israeli forces from Arab lands. He had also visited Teheran, Riyadh and Ankara in pursuance of Pakistan's policy to support the Arab war.

While the Premier is keen to get first hand American assessment of the Middle East situation and know Washington's plans to bring permanent peace to Arab land, Pakistan is obviously interested in the East peace in consistent with the legitimate Arab demands in its own national and economic interests.

Dr. Kissinger's programme in Islamabad was not been official ly made public, but it is be lieved he will have another round of talks on Saturday morning before flying to Peking on his visit to China. Inciden tally, Pakistan provided facili ties for Dr. Kissinger's first Secret visit to China about three years ago which opened way for China-America detente.
