US to offer arms treaty
| Washington
President Reagan, responding to Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev's arms control proposal last weekend, announced yesterday he has directed US negotiators in Geneva to present the text of a US counterproposal for eliminating both sides' medium range missiles from Europe. The President also said he is summoning US negotiators to Washington at the end of this week.
``Following these discussions in Washington I will send a team back to Geneva to take up once again the detailed negotiations for an INF [intermediate nuclear forces] reduction agreement,'' he said.
