The United States feels that so far the 15-year Egyptian-Soviet pact has not changed the Cairo-Moscow relationship, according to informed sources here. The sources said that the U.S. position was communicated several days ago to the leaders of the major Jewish organizations by Joseph J. Sisco, Assistant Secretary of State for South Asian and Near Eastern Affairs. Sisco, said the informants, assessed the first treaty signed by the USSR and Egypt as so far representing only “more of the same” in terms of military aid, “not massive Soviet aid.” The pact, Sisco was said to have reported, can eventually mean “very much or very little,” depending on its implementation.
