Ronald Reagan: “I'm delighted to have had the opportunity of spending some time with the President.”

I'm sure they'll—as we will—they'll take it for what it is.

We've only heard the same as you've heard: that he has been suggesting doing something of this kind.

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.

I am delighted that later today I'll have the opportunity to welcome President Gorbachev to the United States and extend to him the hospitality and good wishes of the American people.
