Ronald Reagan: “This agreement will be a win-win situation, not only for the United States and Canada but for the world.”

These unilateral reductions would, however, give a long-awaited encouragement for our efforts to achieve the genuine balance in conventional forces that would assure greater security and stability in Europe.

I don't say that we're not prepared.

We have not come this far through lack of strength or any weakness in our resolve, nor has there been anything inevitable about what we've achieved.

I do hereby proclaim December 17, 1988, as Wright Brothers Day.
