The Washington Post today carried a report from its correspondent in Beirut stating that “for the first time in many years a prominent “Communist politician has risked Arab ire by coming out in favor of negotiations with Israel to solve the Palestine problem. “
Joe Alex Morris, Jr., reported that Hungarian Premier Gulya Kallai, ending an official visit to Kuwait, told a press conference there that the Palestinian problem, like all international problems, should be solved peacefully through negotiations. “Any solution of the Palestinian problem in favor of the Arab countries would do nothing less than create new conflict equally as grave as the first, ” he stated.
