Airline hot line
Moscow, Washington, and Tokyo will start a joint communications hot line to try to prevent air disasters such as the destruction of a South Korean jumbo jet by r Soviet fighters in 1983. A Japanese Transport Ministry official said the line would be operable from August 15 to guarantee the safety of civil air traffic over the North Pacific. The three nations agreed in November to establish a link between Tokyo and the Siberian town of Khabarovsk, which would then be linked to the existing line between Tokyo and Anchorage. The countries held meetings since the incident, which sparked international outrage.— Tokyo.
