For the first time, the Soviets publicly praised the fedayeen, condemned Lebanon and accused the U.S. of provoking the trouble by supporting Israel. Privately, Soviet Ambassador to Washington Anatoly Dobrynin told the State Department that Moscow wanted to cool the crisis in Lebanon. Washington, unwilling to accept Moscow's private assurances while the Soviets were scoring public propaganda points, angrily dismissed the Russian charges of U.S. provocation.

...back the Arabs in their refusal to sign a joint peace pact with Israel. The U.S. agrees with Israel that a lasting settlement is possible only if all parties sign a single document. The Soviets, for their part, make much of Arab pride. Soviet Ambassador to the U.S. Anatoly Dobrynin reportedly said: "Remember, my government is dealing with the losers of the 1967 war, and this is much more difficult than dealing with the victors...
