Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger returned here from Ankara tonight and resumed his talks with Israeli leaders at a working dinner at Premier Yitzhak Rabin’s residence. The Cabinet met earlier today in secret session as a ministerial security committee to hear a full report on the first two rounds of talks with Kissinger Sunday night and Monday morning, concerning a second-stage Israel-Egyptian agreement in Sinai, Officials insisted that no decisions were taken or called for at today’s session because the negotiations are still in their initial stages.
Kissinger was in Ankara for 24 hours in connection with the Greek-Turkish conflict over Cyprus. On his return he was met at Ben Gurion Airport by Foreign Minister Yigal Allon, U.S. Ambassador Kenneth Keating and by Mrs. Kissinger who remained in Jerusalem during her husband’s brief visit to Turkey. There were few reporters at the airport as the Secretary was not expected to make any statement and, in fact, made none. Talks between Kissinger and Rabin were due to start at 10 p.m. local time.
