NATO Ministers Meet in Rome Amid Middle East Tensions
Foreign ministers of NATO gather in Rome for a two day spring meeting to discuss a stand easy troop cut deal with the Soviet bloc while wartime dangers in the Middle East and Indochina loom large. The plan calls for a 1.5 million man reduction in Warsaw Pact forces in Europe in exchange for a 300,000 man NATO cut, bringing Soviet forces to about 3 million and NATO to about 2.7 million in Europe. The United States warns of Soviet expansion in the Arab world and the Mediterranean as Secretary of State Rogers notes NATO will play a vital security role this decade. The meeting also weighs whether the United States should resume arms to Greece amid pressure over democracy and NATO relations.
