Egypt Signals Renewed Fight and Peace Demands
The Associated Press reports Egypt will not concede further to secure peace with Israel and challenges Israel to declare if it seeks peace or territory. The Al Ahram article, signed by editor Mohammed Hassanein Heikal, says Egypt will control timing and method of fighting if Israel wants land over peace. Egypt signals possible treaty if Sinai is returned and may allow Israeli ships via the Suez Canal if peace holds. Observers note this extends Cairo’s offer beyond a settlement while U Thant, Jarring, and UN officials monitor responses amid Jerusalem housing disputes.
