The Israel Government has set up a special committee to study Israel’s future economic relations with the countries which are banding together in the common European market plan, Foreign Minister Golda Meir announced in Parliament doay. She added that the committee may recommend Israel’s joining the common market, if it proves feasible.
Replying to a Communist demand for a debate on her recent conversations with French Government figures, Mrs. Meir said she had not negotiated on the question of the common market. But, she continued, since all the countries in the plan are friendly to Israel and in view of Israel’s own interests which may be involved, the Jewish State cannot sit back and fail to explore the matter.
