The Foreign Ministry said that the intention of Dr. Jarring to return to Moscow as Sweden’s Ambassador after his round of March talks in Mideast capitals had been known in Jerusalem and was not considered here as indicating an end to his mission. Spokesman David Rivlin added that Israel had every intention of continuing to use Dr. Jarring’s good offices and that this was made clear to him. Israel may have some further questions to submit to him and did not rule out the possibility that they might be transmitted to him during his stay in Moscow.
