Ronald Reagan: “There will be a new hope for humanity.”

I expressed to President Gorbachev my confidence that the work we began together at Geneva in 1985 will continue under the Bush administration.

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

Are you better off than you were four years ago?

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.
