Dayan backs Suez pullback if a permanent truce is in place
Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan expressed support for a partial withdrawal from the Suez Canal contingent on a permanent cease fire with Egypt and no Soviet or Egyptian troops crossing the canal. He urged a comprehensive settlement and cautioned against a full withdrawal. Egyptian officials insisted on holding positions on the canal side and dismissed demilitarization. Dayan cited Labour party calls for substantial frontier changes and noted reports of upgraded Soviet aircraft aiding Egypt, stressing the need to pursue peace through any available openings.
