We voted for the J ].,~~ 12 F3:iSC resfll~.~t ion calling for a
ceasefire in the Iran- rag fighting aced settlement o?
differences thxough ne otiation. This resolution was supported
by Arab moderates, inc udinr~ Saudi Azabia, which specifically
asked that we vote for it. Iran has so far ignored the
resolution. -
AWACS Support For Saud' Arabian Air Defenses.
Four USAF AWACS ai craft have been deployed to Saudi Arabia
since October 1980 to rovide the Saudi Arabian air defense
system with an early w rning capaf~ility against hostile air
attack. R{~cerstly, at a~trli rr'~;.~r?S~, ~~Q rigrecc3 tt3 e.13~inate
filtears that had scree ed out of t;:e data supplied the Saudis
certain tracking infor~ation a:.d to permit AWACS flights on a
more extended orbit to?ard the Gu;f (:.chile still remaining over
the Saudi land mass). These steps no~,~ give the Saudis the full
air picture over south rn Iraq an:: Iran, thereby permitting
earlier and more comp} ate ciAtectic~n .and tra~4cing of possible
intruders/hostile airs aft; our agreement to take these steps
was also intended as a positive gesture of U.S. concern for the
security of Saudi Arab a._ Restrictions on passing any AWACS
data by the Saudis to bird parties, especially Iraq, without
our consent, sti}} apply.
