Well, as you may remember, I did say earlier on that we were very disappointed with the PLO's stance in solidarity with Saddam Hussein.

Very much satisfied with the progress that has been made since General Schwarzkopf met in the tent, but there are still some very important things to be taken care of, including the fact that these helicopters should not be used for combat…

One, I'll restate my view that I want our troops to come home as soon as possible. I've just been elated as I've watched the troops come home and the warmth of the welcome and all of that. There are some details to be worked out on the…

I would, on that question--we barely touched on the question, to answer the first part of your question. Secondly, I would say that the United States, for many years, has enjoyed the best possible relations with a unified Canada. I am not…

When the Secretary of State gets back, we will be talking about that whole question. I have repeated my desire to try to curb proliferation. That doesn't mean we're going to refuse to sell anything to everybody. We're not going to cut off…

Hussein's Use of Force Against the Iraqi People March 13, 1991 Saddam Hussein has a track record of using his military against his own population. We have received information over the past week that he has been using helicopters in an…

I will continue to deal with the President of the Soviet Union. That is the Government that's accredited, and that is the Government with which the United States Government will deal. We have had many, many contacts with leaders of the…

Yes, I'm concerned. I'm concerned about the instability. Neither the Canadians, nor the Americans, nor any other coalition partner wanted to see an unstable Iraq creating a vacuum in that part of the world. I'm not suggesting that is what…

I think Iran knows our view; in various ways they know our view that grabbing territory would be counterproductive. And I could take this opportunity to suggest that that would be the worst thing they could do. And I know that I would…

I've expressed my disappointment in the PLO. The PLO, you remember--I believe it was at the Rabat summit years ago, was designated as the sole spokesman for the Palestinian people. But their leader chose wrong on this; went far beyond…

Thank you. The only thing I'd say before taking questions is that I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Canadian people and the Prime Minister for the steadfast support for the coali- tion and for the principle of standing up…

Well, a lot of our consultation today will be talking as coalition partners, longtime friends, countries that are friendly, as to what we do about the Middle East. But we also are into some bilateral questions. And we are, after all, the…

Of course I'll answer his letter. I've expressed myself on the Jordanian question, on our relationship with the King, over and over again. But yes, I have received a letter, and yes, I will respond to it in normal course of events. I mean…

I've already expressed myself in terms of our continued support for [United Nations Security Council Resolutions] 242 and 338 that address themselves to that question. So, we are not backing off from that. But I think that we have a real…

The bill's $900 million payment floor would unnecessarily restrict the Administration's flexibility in administering the program.

If the Mitchell-Dole amendment is adopted, the Administration would support enactment of S. 578 — provided that it is not subsequently modified in a way that is unacceptable.

No, I can't because I know nothing about it.

I just said--of course, we ask about it, but are you suggesting there was something new today? If so, I haven't heard it. Note: The President's 73d news conference began at 4:25 p.m. in the Reading Room at Parliament Hill. In the news…

As I mentioned to you--maybe you missed that part of it where I said I didn't want to get into the internal affairs of Canada, courageously on the sidelines. But I will simply say that I'm not going to go any further than that, but I would…

One of the goals that I spelled out, one of the points I made in my speech to our Congress was the need to do something about the proliferation of weapons. I'll have a chance to talk to Prime Minister Mulroney about that. I'm not sure…

Well, I would say this, Terry [Terence Hunt, Associated Press], that the reports--and I've gotten a report every night, each night, from Jim Baker, and then Brent Scowcroft has been, I think, even in more touch with him. I think that the…

I think to say what I just said, you'd have to assume that there is some kind of change. I think it's fair to say there's some kind of change. The threat to some of the countries in the region is clearly down--the threat from Iraq, which…

Arms Control March 12, 1991 Dear Mr. Speaker: (Dear Mr. President:) In accordance with section 1009 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1990 and 1991 (Public Law 101-189), enclosed is a report on Anti-Satellite…

I think it's almost impossible to have normalized relations with Iraq while Saddam Hussein is in there.

We must not neglect trade relationships in this hemisphere.
