SECRET - 7 - C. Military Credits (Ex-IM Bank) Spain has shown an interest in Export-Import Bank credits for the purchase of F-4 aircraft. The Bank has earmarked $85 million this fiscal year for that purpose, in addition to the $35 million already promised during the last base agreement extension. In the negotiations we should offer to make credits available for military purchases, up to $50 million per year for five years. d. Education Assistance This is a most promising area for exploration. An important objective should be to strengthen the basic U.S. relationship with Spain through a major program of cooperative assistance to Spain's radical and comprehensive educational reform program. Spain has shown strong interest in U.S. support for its educational reform plan, which is expected to be approved by the Spanish Parliament in early April. The teacher training aspects of the plan would enable us to influence the shaping of Spanish youth for years to come. The Department of State is now spending about $180,000 on academic exchanges with Spain. This existing program could be expanded to provide additional training in the United States for teachers and administrators and associated in-country assistance for educational reform. Such așsistance should be preceded by a joint review of SECRET
