Threat to N.Z. butter
NZPA-AP Menton, France The leading • Opposition figure, Mr Jacques Chirac, warned yesterday that New Zealand could be forced to accept French nuclear might in the South Pacific to assure its exports of mutton and butter. New Zealanders should know “that the French Government will oppose the importation of butter into
the community if there is no political accord with New Zealand,” said Mr Chirac. New Zealanders should, equally, . know that “the position will be the same concerning mutton.” Mr Chirac said that France would have the power to cut New Zealand’s imports should the opposition come to power in legislative elections.
