-Netherlands-China
Dutch Foreign Minister Van Der Klaauw arrived in Bejing (Peking) last night, the first visit there by a
Western official of his rank since the normalization of Sino-US relations and the invasion of Kampuchea. His talks with Chinese officials will cover political matters in general and prospects for economic cooperation.
-Yugoslavia-Cuba
Yugoslav Foreign Minister Vrhovec, in a speech
Wednesday night at a dinner for Cuban Foreign Minister Malmierca, condemned any foreign interference in other nations' affairs and specifically referred to "hegemony," a Yugoslav codeword for Soviet domination of other
countries. According to the press, Malmierca's text
focused entirely on positive references to the unity and influence of the nonaligned movement. COMMENT: Cuba and the USSR publicly support the new regime in Phnom Penh, while the Yugoslavs have denounced the Vietnamese move into Kampuchea. Malmierca is on the first leg of a trip to several nonaligned states to make preparations for the nonaligned summit
in Havana in September. Vrhovec's remarks indicate that the events in Kampuchea already have become a divisive issue in nonaligned circles.
