ARAB STATES
By reducing prospects for early talks
with the Israelis on the future of the
West Bank, and by making it more difficult
for Sadat to negotiate a separate agree-
ment for the return of more Sinai terri-
tory to Egypt, the summit conference in
Rabat has cast the Arab negotiating posi-
tion in a harder mold. There are signs
that this more militant posture, largely
the result of a shift in Syrian policy,
may be paralleled by increased Arab at-
tention to military preparations.
Syrian Foreign Minister Khaddam pushed for
adoption of a resolution that would have precluded
Egypt from negotiating a further disengagement in
the Sinai and would also have set LID a $13-billion
war fund.
At the conclusion of the summit, it was announced
the Arabs would, in fact, contribute $2.35 billion
annually to help build up the armed forces of Syria,
Egypt, the PLO, and Jordan.
Encouraged by his victory at Rabat, Arafat seems
on the verge at long last of setting up a Palestinian
government in exile. Sadat urged him to do so in his
speech at Rabat, and a spokesman for the PLO in Bei-
rut said the decision of the summit cleared the way
for the establishment of such a government.

In an apparent effort to help Husayn save face,.'
the other Arabs, in turn, decided that Jordan should
be included in discussions with Egypt, Syria, and
the PLO on Arab negotiating strategy at Geneva.. A
PLO spokesman declared yesterday, however, that his
organization would not participate in any peace talks
as part of a Jordanian delegation.
Presidents Sadat, Asad, and Boumediehe, King
Faysal, and Ar.dfat will meet in Algiers later this
week, presumably to hold post-summit discussions on
Arab political and military strategy.
