USSR-Czechoslovakia: >T he talks between Soviet
leaders and new Czechoslovak party chief Dubcek in
Moscow yesterday no doubt centered on future rela-
tions between the two countries and on the latest de-
velopments inside Czechoslovakia.
The Czechoslovaks have reiterated several times
since Dubcek took over on 5 January that a strong al-
liance with the Soviet Union will remain the keystone
of their foreign policy. They have been less explicit,
however, about the nature, of their future relations
with the rest of the world.
Dubcek appears to believe he must make various
domestic changes, especially in the fields of cultural
and economic affairs, to get popular support, and he
has set out on this course. The Soviets may have been
discomfited at the prospect. Publicly, they have re-
mained virtually silent on developments in Prague.
It is unlikely that any formal agreements will
emerge from the talks, which, according to press re-
ports, were to last only one day. If nothing else, the
meeting will have served, however, to give each side
an. opportunity to evaluate the other and give each a
firmer basis for planning future policies.
Dubcek apparently undertook the trip unattended
b an other Czech leaders, a highly unusual ste .

NOTES
Denmark: Pressure is building up to prohibit
overflights of Greenland by nuclear-armed aircraft.
Outgoing Prime Minister Krag told the press that the
1951 agreement with the US governing the use of Thule
airbase does not explicitly cover the overflight ques-
tion. The press is demanding that this.omission be
corrected. Hilmar Baunsgaard, who is still trying
to form a government, has not commented on the
issue, but the press clearly reflects the current pub-
lic mood in Denmark. Iceland and Norway also have
displayed extreme sensitivity to this overflight prob-
lem.

Saudi Arabia: Saudi Arabia apparently has con-
cluded that the People's Republic of South Yemen is
"irrevocably hostile" to it and constitutes a threat to
Saudi interests. A Saudi official claims that South
Yemen may already have sent soldiers and equipment
to assist the Yemeni republicans and that it is foment-
ing increased dissidence in Muscat and Oman.

Guatemala. The Communist Rebel Armed Forces
are reportedly shifting away from the capital area.
Their stated objective is to lure the armed forces into
the countryside where they would be more vulnerable
to ambush. The decision to concentrate on guerrilla
organization instead of urban terrorism apparently
has, removed one
cause of dissension among the insurgent groups and
reunited the factions4
