"America seeks a growing partnership of freedom, a partnership that is based on shared respect of reality and shared responsibility for effective defense."
"American security depends on the security of the alliance as a whole, and the alliance in turn depends upon the strategic strength of the United States."
"The security of our alliance is only assured so long as we remain determined and strong and insist on protecting our people and their values."
"So let me say, General, simply, as we begin our visit, that this enormous strength has only one purpose, and that purpose is to keep the peace for free men everywhere in the world."
