Israel ministers in France, Britain, Italy, the Benelux countries and Czechoslovakia conferred here today with Israel Foreign Minister Mosho Sharett on problems pertaining to Israel’s position in relation to the present world crisis. Mr. Sharett arrived here yesterday for a short visit before he continues his journey home.
The Minister refused categorically to comment today on Egyptian reports that Israel is massing troops on the Israel-Egyptian border. (In Washington, Israel Minister Plenipotentiary Theodor Kollek denied an Egyptian report that 40,000 Israel troops were massed south and east of Bethlehom.)
