Foreign Minister Roland Dumas of France is due in Israel this week, mainly to discuss Israel’s export relationship with the European Economic Community after Spain and Portugal join the EEC next year.
Dumas, regarded as a friend of Israel, will be returning Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir’s visit to France last June. He will come here on a two-day official visit following the meeting of the EEC foreign ministers in Brussels.
Meanwhile, an Israeli delegation representing several government departments will leave for Brussels tomorrow for talks on such matters as how many tons of avocados and flowers Israel may export to the EEC countries each year without tariff and how high the tariffs will be on each ton over the tariff-free ceiling.
