Description President Reagan, saying that an agreement had been reached to end the crisis in west Beirut, ordered about 800 marines today to participate in a three-nation force to insure the safe evacuation of Palestinian and Syrian fighters from the city.
In his televised statement from the White House, Mr. Reagan said the successful carrying out of the two-week phased evacuation, which is to begin Saturday, would ''set the stage'' for the rapid departure of all foreign troops -Israeli, Syrian and Palestinian - from the rest of Lebanon and for the restoration of Lebanese control over the country. He said it would also help to safeguard northern Israel from attacks from Lebanon.
''We must also move quickly in the context of Camp David,'' the President said, ''to resolve the Palestinian issue in all its aspects, as well as the other unresolved problems in the Arab-Israeli conflict. Only when all these steps are accomplished can true and lasting peace and security be achieved in the Middle East.''
Mr. Reagan, noting that the lengthy negotiations had been ''extremely complex'' and held under ''the most arduous circumstances,'' often as Israeli bombs were falling on west Beirut, said that sometimes ''it was difficult to imagine how agreement could be reached, and yet it has been reached.''
