We reject terrorism and violence from any side to achieve political goals or to stifle dissent.

I expect that it could be done fairly quickly once we get START II out of the way.

We must also ensure that our institutions and structures keep pace with the rapid technological and economic changes under way in the world.

We're going to have to work this situation to turn it back around.

I hope that Pakistan won't test.

I think it ought to be ratified because then we can get more business done.

We encourage the authorities to respond rapidly, by opening a dialogue which addresses the aspirations of the Indonesian people and by introducing the necessary reforms.

The political, the economic, and the security interests of Pakistan would be dramatically increased if they walked away from a test.

We call on Israeli and Palestinian leaders to refrain from unilateral acts which pre-determine the final status negotiations and undermine confidence.

We welcome the progress that has recently been made on peace implementation in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

We will also continue our efforts to reduce the global scourge of AIDS through vaccine development, preventive programmes and appropriate therapy.

I still have hopes that the Prime Minister and the Pakistani Government will not go through with a nuclear test.

We are conscious of the serious impact of the crisis in the region on the poor and most vulnerable.

A political solution to the problem of Kosovo is vital for the peace and well-being of all the people of the region.

We commend all those involved in achieving an outcome which reflects the fundamental aspirations of both parts of the community in Northern Ireland and secures their rights.

All of the foreign policy decisions we made were based on what we believed were in the interests of the American people.

We condemn the nuclear tests which were carried out by India on 11 and 13 May.

Peace has unfailingly been better, in the toughest of circumstances.

I think, if it is embraced, you'll see a big increase in involvement of Irish-Americans and other Americans eager to invest in Northern Ireland.

Anybody who resorts to violence will have no friends in the United States.

Let's see if we can go for this thing and make it happen.

I have made it as clear as I can that anyone who abandons the peace... is never going to be a friend of the United States.

Democracies of diverse people are interesting places to be when your uniqueness is valued.

What have they got to lose, really, by trying it? Nothing.

I think it's appropriate for me to speak out.
