National and international news
from the Reuter News Report
Killing, arson may Imrt
economy, leadero warn
NEW DELHI, India The arson and killing unleashed against
India's Sikh minority after the murder of Prime Minister Indira
Gandhi is likely to cut deep into the country's economy, Sikh
leaders warned Sunday.
Sikhs control broad areas of industry, commerce and trans
port. But leaders of the Sikh community said the riots could
force many to pull back to Punjab state, home of most Sikhs.
The violence has left about 900 people dead, mostly Sikhs.
The looting and burning has hit Sikh transport enterprises as
well as factories and stores. One unofficial estimate puts the
number of vehicles destroyed nationwide at more than 3,000.
Transport is almost at a standstill over much of the country,
including movement of goods to and from ports as Sikhs wait
to see how the situation develops before taking their trucks
and taxis back on the streets. With commodities In short
supply because of the transport disruption, prices especially
of food are rising.
An independent Sikh member of parliament, Khushwant
Singh, said small businessmen and transport operators would
find it difficult to start again because many of them had lost
everything in the rampage.
"It is unlikely that insurance companies will be able to com
pensate the losses," he said. They might therefore want to
return to Punjab and resume traditional agricultural opera
tions." A Sikh businessman agreed.
"If we are not accepted here, we don't want to stay. We don't
want to be like the Jews in Germany," Charanjit Singh, one of
India's major Industrialists, told Reuters. His three steel plants
In New Delhi were among the many Sikh businesses burned
down by rioters. Singh said the Indian government promosed
hirn protection, but ione came from my factories."
Iranians protect near embassy
TEHRAN, Iran Several thousand people demonstrated
Sunday outside the former U.S. Embassy here on the fifth
anniversary of its seizure by radical Iranian students, and
officials gave no indication that U.S.-Iranian relations might
cease.
Witnesses said the crowd was smaller than in past years.
Instead, much attention was given to another anniversary
that of Ayatollah Ruhoilah Khomeini's expulsion to Turkey
by the former Shah of Iran 20 years ago Sunday.
President Ali Khamenei said in a newspaper interview the
door for the United States to return to Iran was shut and
would remain so for a long while. The VS. Embassy is now used
as a headquarters for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Reagan: Nic&raguan elections falce
ROCHESTER, Minn. President Reagan, two days before
the U.S. presidential election, Sunday ridiculed the presiden
tial elections being held in Nicaragua.
"I have just one thing to say it's a phoney," Reagan told a
reporter who asked his impression of Sunday's election in
Nicaragua.
Victory by the Sandinistas in Nicaragua's elections for presi
dent, vice president and the 90-member nat ional assembly was
a foregone conclusion Sunday. The White House has com
plained the balloting is a "Soviet-style sham."
Public opinion polls released Sunday showed Reagan headed
for a landslide against Democratic challenger Walter Mondale
and indicated he could conceivably win all 50 states.
U.S., Egypt begin war gameo
CAIRO, Egypt Egypt and the United States begin three
days of military exercises Monday to test the Egyptian armed
forces ability to repel air and naval attacks, Egyptian and
American officials said Sunday. In the war games, code-named
"Ssa Winds," ships and fighter planes from the U.S. Sixth Fleet
in the Mediterranean Sea will play the "attackers." U.S. Embassy
officials declined to give any details of the maneuvers. A similar
news blackout was clamped on last year's exercises code
named "Brightstar."
Western diplomats said Egypt preferred to see little publicity
around joint exercises with the United States at a time when it
hope for improved ties with the rest of the Arab world. Egypt
was ostracized by most Arab states for signing a peace treaty
with Israel in 1979.
Egyptian Defense minister bdel Halim Abu Ghazala said
last week Egyptian navy, air force and air defense units would
take part in the exercises in coordination with the United
States. The location of Sixth Fleet ships taking part was not
given.
Traeiio block Capitol entrance
WASHINGTON Heavyweight trucks were used to block
entrances to the U.S. Capitol this weekend, but administration
cuicials said they were not responding to a specie threat. The
officials i iaid the trucks were placed around the Capitol, which
was hit by a bomb attack last November, on a trial basis as part
of the administration's ongoing effort to improve safety pre
cautions against terrorist attacks. They said the trucks would
be removed by tomorrow morning.
