Our position is that we will not get involved in the conflict at all.

I see no chance that we will put military forces into action there.

We have never taken a position that Iran or Iraq should be a threat to which we would respond with our force or might.

The worst thing I could do as President would be to escalate this disruption or altercation between Iran and Iraq to an even greater international crisis because of ill-considered decisions by myself.

I'm grateful in the last 3¼ years there has been no American troop or soldier sent to endanger his or her life in combat against another nation.

The United States is not going to apologize.

Our American policy and the principles on which we have based that policy have not changed.

We are still committed to detente.

Our security is directly involved in the security of Europe.

My policy of promoting human rights throughout the world remains firm.

I have sought peace not through weakness, but through strength.

There is established the President's Commission on United States-Liberian Relations.

The Chancellor made clear that the Soviet Union should take its troops out of Afghanistan without delay.

We will strengthen our relationship with Pakistan.

The Caribbean is of great interest to our country and is our closest group of neighbors.

I’ve tried to keep our country at peace.

The absence of such controls would prove detrimental to the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States.

We must show the Soviet Union that it cannot expect to continue to do business as usual with the United States while it is invading and occupying an independent nation.
