o Submit New Ideas In Argentin
^ . V, '
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina
(AP) — Secretary of State Alex-
ander M. Haig Jr. said he had
“new ideas” to put before Argen-
tina’s military leaders today, but
officials showed little or no op-
timism that he would be able to
diminish the threat of war bet-
ween Britain and Argentina over
the Falkland Islands.
“The task is not easy, but the
stakes are so great they demand
the ultimate effort by all par-
ticipants in these discussions,”
Haig said Thursday night on his
arrival after some 30,000 miles of
peace shuttling in eight days.
He called for a “flexible ap-
proach by both sides, not an aban-
donment of principles” and said
both the Argentine and British
governments assured the U.S.
government “of their wish to con-
tinue the efforts we are making
for a political solution.”
Haig did not disclose the new
ideas he was to discuss today with
President Leopoldo Galtieri and
Foreign Minister Nicanor Costa
Mendez. One report said they in-
cluded another version of the pro-
posal, rejected by Argentina Mon-
day, for temporary tripartite con-
trol of the islands by Britain,
Argentina and the United States.
Argentina’s official Telam
news agency reported Thursday
some of the Argentine navy’s 31
ships sailed, “presumably to the
south,” from their base at Puerto
Belgrano, 850 miles north of the
Falklands.
Britlan said earlier it did not
think the Argentine navy would

try to challenge the 200-mile
blockade zone Britain proclaimed
Monday around the islands 250
miles off the southern coast of
Argentina. The Ministry of
Defense suggested the Argentine
ships would skirt the zone or
maneuver along the Argentine
coast "in an attempt to score
some propaganda advantage and
bolster up morale in Argentina.”
British defense officials said
they not could confirm Argen-
tina’s claim that two of its torpedo
boats ran the blockade Tuesday
and were tied up in Stanley, the
Falklands capital.
Britain is believed to have at
least four, nuclear-powered sub-
marines patrolling the zone, and a
40-ship Royal Navy task force is
due in the area early next week.
Argentina has demanded
recognition of Argentine
sovereignty over the islands as a
prelude to talks over administra-
tion of them and Joint develop-
ment of the offshore oil and gas
that is believed around them.
Britain says the Argentine oc-
cupatlon force must be
withdrawn before there can be
any negotiations.
While Haig was en route from
Washington, Galtieri telephoned
President Reagan and reaffirmed
his. hopes that the dispute would
be settled peacefully, the White
House said.
Public Information Secretary
Rodolfo Baltlerrez said Galtieri
asked Reagan to keep in mind
that the United States fought
against colonialism in 1776 to
achieve independence, and that
Argentina did the same in the
next century “and completed the
process in 1982" by retaking the
islands Britain had held for 149
years.
Reagan telephoned the Argen-
tine president on April 2 to try to
get him to call off the seizure of
the British colony, but the inva-
sion force was already en route
and Galtieri would not order it
back.
In his telephone conversation
with Galtieri Thursday, Reagan
expressed hopes for a settlement
over the disputed Falklands
islands, but said, “We still have a
ways to go,” according to a White
House statement.
“As he had in a previous con-
versation, President Galtieri
reaffirmed to President.Reagan
his personal desire for a peaceful
resolution of the dispute, "
White House statement said.
An administration official cau-N
tioned against Interpreting
Galtiert’s call as a signal of move-
ment toward resolving the
dispute. ‘‘It’s not a
breakthrough,” said the official,
who insisted on anonymity.
The official emphasized that
Galtieri merely had reaffirmed-
his hope for a peaceful resolution.
Reagan, meanwhile, was
scheduled to meet with national
security advisers today. The topic
of the session was not announced,
but it was presumed the
Falklands would be on the agen-
da.
