  • Leader’s speech, Bournemouth

    Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen. I want to begin on a personal note and I think you will understand why. Since we met last year, I have lost the best of friends, Ian Gow, and we have all lost one of our wisest and bravest colleagues. Before he was murdered by the IRA, Ian taught…

  • A United Germany in a United Europe

    We Germans are not oblivious of the fact that here and in other countries we are being asked questions as we head for unity: What kind of Germany will emerge?

  • We Live in a Contaminated Moral Environment

    My dear fellow citizens, For forty years you heard from my predecessors on this day different variations on the same theme: how our country was flourishing, how many million tons of steel we produced, how happy we all were, how we trusted our government, and what bright perspectives were unfolding in front of us. I…

  • A Joint Session of the U.S. Congress

    Dear Mr. Speaker, Dear Mr. President, Dear senators and members of the House, Ladies and gentlemen: My advisors have advised me, on this important occasion, to speak in Czech. I don’t know why. Perhaps they wanted you to enjoy the sound of my mother tongue. The last time they arrested me, on October 27 of…

  • Address to Nation on Panama Invasion

    My fellow citizens, last night I ordered U.S. military forces to Panama. No President takes such action lightly. This morning I want to tell you what I did and why I did it.

  • Je n’ai pas peur de la réunification

    Je n’ai pas peur de la réunification. Je ne me pose pas ce genre de question à mesure que l’histoire avance. L’histoire est là. Je la prends comme elle est. Je pense que le souci de réunification est légitime pour les Allemands. S’ils le veulent et s’ils le peuvent. La France adaptera sa politique de…
