Israel presses U.S. on peace plan and Sharm el Sheikh stake
Deputy Premier Yigal Allon says U.S.-Israel tensions stem from progress in Middle East talks and warns of a potential sharper clash as negotiations advance. He opposes the Rogers plan and insists Israel will not abandon secure borders or Sharm el Sheikh. Egypt risks a strong Israeli response if fighting resumes, warns Haim Herzog, while Ezer Weizman urges confronting Washington. A U.S. presidential frame in Nixon addresses the Rogers plan amid these strains. Meanwhile, Colombia declares a state of siege after rioting in Cali leaves seven dead and dozens injured.
