Secretary of State George P. Shultz said at a White House briefing that President Reagan will press allies at the Venice economic summit to deter attacks on Persian Gulf shipping with an adequate force, but may stop short of asking broader military participation beyond Britain and France. He noted Britain has a stronger regional naval presence and stressed no daylight between himself and the president. The Venice talks June 8 to 10 will include leaders from Britain, Canada, France, Italy, Japan and West Germany, as Reagan travels to Rome and Berlin on the 10 day trip.
