The decision of a Federal district judge in Chicago approving a school desegregation plan with no mandatory busing represents a victory for Reagan Administration policies in one case, but it does not necessarily set a precedent for other cities or signal a wave of the future. That was the tentative consensus today from interviews with Justice Department officials, lawyers for the Chicago Board of Education and civil rights activists in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Chicago Urban League. The reality in Chicago and some other cities, recognized by Judge Milton I. Shadur, is that there are just not enough white children left in the cities' public schools to desegregate the whole system. William L. Taylor, a civil rights expert at the Center for National Policy Review at Catholic University here, said of the Chicago ruling: ''It's another sad chapter in what I think has been a tragic story. Over the years, government failures have narrowed the options enormously.'' Mr. Taylor, a former staff director for the United States Commission on Civil Rights, predicted that the Chicago decision ''will not result in significant desegregation.''

International The arms embargo on Guatemala was lifted by the Reagan Administration because of ''significant steps'' taken to end human rights abuses. The embargo's removal was regarded as an indication of the Administration's support for the Government of Gen. Efrain Rios Montt. (Page 1, Col. 1.) Confirmation of a falling satellite was received from the Russians, but they indicated that steps had been taken to prevent radioactive components from reaching the earth by splitting the satellite into fragments. But United States officials said they were not fully reassured by the Soviet explanation. Radar and tracking cameras indicated that the main body of the Soviet satellite, including a nuclear reactor and its enriched uranium fuel, appeared to remain intact. (1:1.)

Tareq Aziz, a Deputy Prime Minister of Iraq, said today that France was increasing its purchases of Iraqi oil and continuing military aid on what he called a ''vast scale.'' Mr. Aziz spoke of French aid in general terms at a news conference and in a newspaper interview after five days of talks with French officials, including President Francois Mitterrand.
