The World : Aussies Reject Sanctions
- Share via
Both New Zealand and Australia rejected the U.S. call for economic sanctions against Libya, accused of supporting guerrillas responsible for terrorist attacks last month on airports in Rome and Vienna. Australia said it will not join in the sanctions unless they receive widespread international support. Foreign Minister Bill Hayden said Australia plans limited steps, including a review of official Libyan representation in the country and a temporary ban on additional Libyan students. New Zealand Prime Minister David Lange said there is no agreement on the desirability and effectiveness of sanctions.
