Gorbachev willing to meet Reagan
POTSDAM, East Germany Soviet
leader Mikhail Gorbachev said Sunday
that he was willing to meet President
Reagan this year if the United States
changed policies he charged were poi
soning relations between the super
powers. Speaking to reporters at Potsdam,
site of the 1945 Allied conference on
Germany, Gorbachev said "the meeting
(with Reagan) can take place if the
United States realizes that it is neces
sary to take this path."
"But if it (America) goes on acting
as it is today, trying to poison the
atmosphere, this will throw a shadow
over any future meeting," the Soviet
Communist Party chief said. "If it (the
summit) is to happen, a better atmos
phere is necessary."
Gorbachev did not elaborate, but he
appeared to be referring to last week's
U.S. bombing raids on Libya and recent
U.S. underground tests of nuclear wea
pons. On Friday, Gorbachev told the
East German Communist Party con
gress those actions and the "increased
(U.S.) threats" against Nicaragua de
monstrated that the United States was
following a "militarist and aggressive"
policy that could" damage U.S.-Soviet
relations.
Whi te House Chief of Staff Donald T.
Reagan said Sunday the United States
expected Gorbachev to "live up to his
word" and meet with Reagan this year.
The two men agreed at their Geneva
summit in November to meet this year
in the United States. No date has been
set.
Gorbachev made his remarks in Pots
dam in response to a reporter's ques
tion. He spoke in Russian, and his
comments were translated by reporters
fluent in the language.

U.S. attack scared Khadafy, officials say
WASHINGTON Key administra
tion officials believe that last week's
bombing raid on Col. Moammar Khad
afy's headquarters frightened the Liby
an leader, emboldened his enemies in
his own country and put renewed pres
sure on America's European allies to
combat terrorism.
At the same time, however, the same
officials expect the United States may
well be prompted to strike again.
"We're not looking for a pretext to
hit him again," one source said, "but I
think we just know the problem isn't
over. It may be that Khadafy is weaker
because of what we did, and that's all
the more reason to keep after him."
Corpse of hostage
returned to states
WASHINGTON The corpse of
Peter Kilburn, the American kidnap
victim reportedly killed last week in
retaliation for the U.S. air raid on Libya,
was flown to Andrews Air Force Base
near Washington on Sunday and taken
for forensic tests, a State Department
spokesman said.
Kilburn's body was discovered Tues
day with those of two Britons in Leban
on's central mountains, along with a
note saying they had been executed by
the Arab Revolutionary Cells to avenge
the U.S. attack against Libya the night
before.
Kilburn, of San Francisco, was librar
ian at the American University of Beirut
for 10 years until he disappeared on
Dec. 3, 1984. Five other American kid
nap victims are still missing in Lebanon.
The officials, who were involved in
administration policy making in the
weeks leading up to President Rea
gan's decison to launch the bombing
raid, agreed to discuss their view of
its effects only on condition they not be
identified.
Khadafy's drop from public view
immediately after the attack and sub
sequent appearances only on televi
sion, rather than in the streets of Tri
poli, "suggest that he's very scared,"
one official said.
Another source with access to U.S.
intelligence reports said the Libyan
leader "is scared now, and he knows
that if he goes after us again, we're
going to go after his terrorist infras
tructure again."
"If he happens to be sitting in the
command post at the time and place
that we decide to hit, then he'll pay the
ultimate price," the official said, sug
gesting the United States would be
delighted if Khadafy were killed in an
air raid, while insisting he was not a
specific target.
Asked about Libyan reports that
Khadafy's adopted daughter was killed
in the bombing and two sons were
seriously wounded, one administration
analyst said, "He had his family at the
headquarters. It was a risk that he ran
that he obviously felt wasn't a risk."
