Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir made a secret 48-hour trip to Europe this week, returning here last night, it was reported today. Yediot Achronot said Shamir had been in two European capitals, accompanied by an aide. The Foreign Ministry spokesman had “no comment” to make on the reports.

Speculation that was naturally triggered here included the possibility of a secret Shamir-Hussein meeting in London, where the Jordanian King is on a private visit, or a hush- hush trip to Rumania. The Rumanians have sought to play a role in the Beirut crisis.
