International relations

Tomorrow we celebrate the 19th birthday of the United Nations.

We will not withdraw from the United Nations.

The sound of gunfire in Asia echoes in the homes of Illinois and Missouri.

We are trying to keep abreast and be very prompt in our actions on this hemisphere.

I do hereby invite the several States of the Union and foreign countries to take part in the California World's Fair.

As I have emphasized several times, the United States is dedicated to NATO.

You believe in peace in the world.

We have peace in the world and we must keep it.

The world is growing smaller, though.

The only thing that counts is peace in the world--peace, peace, peace, and you better work at it.

We live in a world with 120 nations, and each one of those nations has its own idea about what is best for its own people.

We are proud that you have returned tonight under happier circumstances on a mission of friendship.

Finally, we greet you as fellow members of the United Nations, which has done so much to guard the peace and to point the way to a better world order.

Every positive step taken to settle international disputes peacefully—or to eliminate their causes before they reach crisis proportions—brings us all closer to the goal we share.

The United States enjoys friendly relations with nearly all nations represented at your conference.

Countries like Free China were ending their dependence on AID and that others would follow.

It is my thought that we can find many areas to encourage much more progressive and purposeful labor among the nations of the world.

Our national policy is directed toward the attainment of world peace, and our resources are committed to the task of securing and maintaining peace among the nations of the world.
