Russia Makes Anxious Inquires Into
Formation Of Mediterranean Alliance
Russia has been making guard
ed but anxious inquiries into the
possible formation of a Mediter
ranean defense alliance which
would be linked to the projected
North Atlantic Pact. Russia is
expected to come out strongly
against the Pact, if and when it
begins to take shape. The Soviet
has called the proposed Atlantic
agreement an aggressive alliance
against Russia. When the final
terms of the Atlantic Pact are
ironed out, the United States and
Canada will be linked with West
ern European countries in mutual
defense. The Mediterranean Alli
ance presumably would include
Turkey, Greece, and the Arab na
tions.
