Ronald Reagan: “I propose that over the coming years we clean up this mess.”

We must and will dedicate ourselves as a Nation to continue this effort, and to stand in solidarity with those who resist, until the blessings of democracy, freedom, and respect for human dignity are assured throughout the world.

This is a great day.

The objective of the United States remains, as always, a comprehensive peace in the Middle East.

The pursuit of peace is, of course, always in season.
