The Scandinavian countries will probably draw upon Israel’s experiences in the field of aid to Afro-Asian countries, Denmark’s Prime Minister Viggo Kampmann declared here today. The Danish statesman today completed a six-day visit to this country as a guest of the Israel Government.
Pointing out that the Nordic States Council will discuss, at its meeting in March, the establishment of a Scandinavian pool for helping Afro-Asian lands, Premier Kampmann said one of the purposes of his visit to Israel was to study the Israel Government’s program in that field, He declared that the Nordic States Council might profit from the “valuable data and experience” in the area of Afro-Asian aid acquired by the Afro-Asian Institute at Tel Aviv.
In general, the Danish Premier described his visit to Israel as an “unforgettable” experience, stating he was “moved by the warmth of the reception” he received in this country.
