I am indebted to you personally for your dedication and the many contributions you have made to 'our crusade' through the years.
I call on President Brezhnev to join us in this important first step to reduce the nuclear shadow that hangs over the peoples of the world.
We expect Him to protect us in a crisis, but turn away from Him too often in our day-to-day living.
President Mubarak has assured us that Egypt remains committed to a peaceful solution of this conflict.
Foremost among these ties is our belief in, and commitment to, a peaceful solution to the Arab-Israeli dispute.
An essential part of this administration's program for economic recovery is revising or eliminating Federal regulations that place needless burdens on people, businesses, and State and local governments.
We have fought the good fight. We have finished the race. We have kept the faith.
I'm confident that we will be working closely together to achieve those many goals that are in the mutual interest of our two countries.
Your visit today reaffirms our friendship, and all Americans thank you for that reaffirmation.
Your service to the Nation in this capacity, especially your support of the Administration's economic program, has been greatly appreciated.
I do hereby proclaim the month of February, 1982, as American Heart Month.
