Defense Minister Ariel Sharon left last night for a brief visit to the U.S. and Honduras. In the U.S., Sharon will be addressing Israel Bond audiences and aides said no arrangements had been made for him to meet with Reagan Administration officials. His three-day visit to Honduras is as guest of that country’s Defense Minister and the commander of its armed forces. Replying to questions at Ben Gurion Airport whether he would be offering Honduras Soviet equipment captured during the war in Lebanon, Sharon said: “We don’t deal in things like that.”
