Israel’s Cabinet heard at its regular Sunday meeting today the outline of a proposed reply to be made to the Soviet Union’s offer, announced last week, to make the Mediterranean area a “nuclear-free” region.

Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel’s Foreign Minister, told the Cabinet about her proposed reply, and was given additional guidance on the subject by the Cabinet. While no details of the planned reply to Moscow were revealed, it was understood that Israel, in its response to the Kremlinn would emphasize the fact that it favors total disarmament of all weapons, including nuclear ones.
