Israeli Ambassador Yitzhak Rabin last night told the more than 300 women from 27 states attending the National Council of Jewish Women’s four-day institute on local, national and international issues that there are no “shortcuts” to a Middle East peace. He declared that he did not believe the manner in which UN representative Gunnar V. Jarring is proceeding for an overall settlement will succeed, but considered that a partial agreement, such as Solving the way for reopening the Suez Canal is a “realistic” way. Solving one problem will help to erode the suspicion and hate rather than having a meaningless piece of paper, Rabin said, Israel, he added, cannot accept the borders of the past as its boundary lines of the future.
