Peace Charge by Egypt
U S officials rejected Egypt's claim the peace drive in the Middle East ended and pledged to push stalled Egyptian Israeli talks. They noted ongoing U S efforts to rectify alleged new anti aircraft missile emplacements near the Suez cease fire. President Nixon and Secretary Rogers planned talks with Golda Meir to resume negotiations under U N mediator Jarring and hinted at new Israeli military aid including phantom jets. Egypt's Riad defended the cease fire while accusing Washington of shifting to a pro Israel stance and denying arms promises tied to Jarring. Officials stressed continued diplomatic contact with Egypt and the Soviet Union, and dismissed claims of a US guarantee against Israeli air strikes.
