Symposium Continued from page 1
LAWRENCE EAGLEBURGER, a high-level member of
the U.S. state department, then discussed western security
from the standpoint of East-West relations.
Because of the shooting down of the Korean airliner, which
he called an act of murder, relations are in a state of disrepair.
Eagleburger said the Soviet Union needs to eventually learn
"there is only one fruitful way to deal with the West. And that
is to compromise."
An example of the need to compromise is the planned
deployment of missiles in Western Europe, he said. Those
missiles are a response to Soviet missiles placed in Eastern
Europe a few years ago, he said.
Now that the Soviets have not compromised, he said, "it
seems to me it is important that we have to say we've made a
decision as an alliance and carry out that decision."

On the issue of how the United States handled the shooting i
down of the Korean jetliner, Eagleburger and Fraser
disagreed.
Fraser said in retrospect, the United States should have emphasized
more strongly the jet was not on a spy mission and
maybe not have critized the Soviets as strongly.
"BUT THAT'S being wise after the event and that's cheap
wisdom," Fraser said.
"I wouldn't do anything differently," Eagleburger said.
"We do not live in vacuum. We live in a democracy and public
opinion does make a difference.
"I don't belive it was possible for the U.S. government to
do anything other than to react with outrage."
Eagleburger also defended the Reagan administration's
record on human rights. "Legitimately, there are several ways
to deal with the question of human rights," he said. "In some
ways it's better to deal with it with great publicity and fanfare,"
he said.
OTHER TIMES, he said, it is better to deal quietly with
governments ana tnis nas onen oeen me way me auiuiiiiauation
has worked with human rights.
The second half of the symposium concentrated on relations
within the Western alliance and possible threats to the
alliance.
"There is almost no issue on which the allies are in accord,"
said Andreas van Agt, former prime minister of the
Netherlands. "Indeed, NATO is in serious trouble.
"Citizens of the West take it for granted that they live in
peace and security," he said.

Professors Bruce Marshall and Charles Kegley listen attentively to the
TOUCHING ON the theme that future trouble spots will be t<
outside of Europe, van Agt said, the West must choose it's E
allies carefully.
"It is not always advisable to embrace the enemies of your
enemies as your friends," he said. r
What this means is that some resistance movements move 5
positively, he said.
Former British foriegn minister Lord Carrington continued
the theme of trouble outside of Europe. "The success of i
NATO has made it more likely that trouble spots will be out- i
side Western Europe. '
"WE ARE penalized by our sucess," he said. "It is only too
easy for those who don't think deeply" to wonder why NATO
is needed if there has been peace for 30 years.
Eagleburger agreed with Carrington. "Were it (NATO) not

o exist, we would find a very different situation in Western
urope."
But Eagleburger said the United States was shifting to a
nore Pacific oriented policy. An example of this is the United
states' trade patterns, he said.
Much of "our trade is directed toward Japan," he said.
FRASER SAID of the change in U.S. foriegn policy: "That
efocusing would be welcome. The world would be a safer
place if Europe realized", it has given inadequate attention to
other parts of the world.
And Fraser gave a final warning about war outside Europe.
Conflicts in other areas could engulf Europe "the way European
conflicts have engulfed Australia and the rest of the
world."
