Austrian Chancellor Bruno Kreisky condemned terrorism in the Middle East today and suggested efforts to end it by a peaceful settlement of the conflict. Addressing the Austrian Parliament, Kreisky said, “I told Arab representatives repeatedly that terrorism was destructive and damaging for the Arab cause.”
The Chancellor said he “met with understanding by some Arab politicians,” They were aware of these dangers themselves. He said there is no fool-proof way to fight terrorism. However, he believed that peaceful solutions in the Middle East would at least partly paralyze it.
