Sadat Signals Pause in Peace Plan Talks in London
President Sadat said he would mothball the peace plan if talks shift from details to principles. He met Sunday with Shimon Peres in Vienna and urged discussing principles in London with Egyptian Foreign Minister Kamel and US Secretary of State Vance. Begin’s cabinet in Jerusalem rejected the plan as unacceptable but sent Dayan to London to present Israel’s own plan. Berlin noted Peres sought no reference to a Palestinian state or PLO while accepting the Egyptian demand for withdrawal positions remained unresolved.
