The Council of Ministers of the European Economic Community, which meets tomorrow for the first time since the rupture of negotiations for the admission of the United Kingdom to the European Common Market, has on its agenda the question of negotiations with Israel, Turkey and Iran for trade agreements.
The Council of Ministers is expected to formulate instructions for the negotiating body representing the six-nation bloc, which is due shortly to enter the second round of negotiations on an agreement with Israel. Israel, with some 40 percent of its export markets in the European Economic Community, seeks some overall agreement that will keep the gates of the six nations open to its exports.
