2 Monitor reports "some French commentators were offended" RN chose occasion "to 'hold court like a monarch, I as 1 analyst put it. " But tho "RN's were the best publicized, a number of other leaders followed less-intensive summit schedules of their own. 11 Beckman says RN hadn't wanted to meet w/ the leaders, but aides convinced him that was "impractical While being careful to claim no major breakthrus, some WH aides said change in RN's general attitude and his obvious enthusiasm as he met w/ world leaders made whole exercise worthwhile." Monitor's Saikowski makes "2 observations" from RN's "unexpected whirlwind summitry": 1) "US still waits for Europeans to mend the fray in relations, 11 and since France is the "key to the dispute, 11 EEC "can't come to grips w/ the issue" til after elections; 2) "despite shadow of possible impchment, WH continues to convey expectation" of June summit in Moscow. According to Monitor, "diplomatic observers believe the meetings helped generate good atmospherics for improvement of transatlantic ties, tho substance of problem has still to be dealt with and provided beleaguered RN a welcome respite from W gate woes. RN clearly enjoyed the interlude and momentary focus on foreign affairs, area of activity he loves most. "
