...basic terms for a Sinai settlement have been worked out." Egyptian officials quickly declared that Sadat had been misquoted, and the offending sentence did not appear in local accounts of the Hearst interview. Kissinger, as he left Washington for a European trip that included talks with Israeli Premier Yitzhak Rabin, maintained that "we are not anywhere near the point of agreement." Rabin, en route to West Germany on an official visit (see following story), cautioned strongly against speculation. "There are no deadlines, no dramatic events," he said...

When Israeli Premier Yitzhak Rabin flew to Washington last week for talks with President Ford, his El Al jetliner landed at New York's Kennedy Airport. Rabin then boarded a U.S. military jet for the hop between Kennedy and Andrews Air Force Base outside the capital. "Please don't call it the shuttle," an Israeli diplomat jokingly implored TIME Correspondent Strobe Talbott as Rabin disembarked at Andrews.
