was completed in 1980, demonstrated that suppliers and recipients can work

non-proliferation concerns.
--Finally, we are working to encourage regional cooperation and restraint.
Protocol I of the Treaty of Tlatelolco which will contribute to the
lessening of nuclear dangers for our Latin American neighbors ought now to

LIMITATIONS ON STRATEGIC ARMS

weapons. I strongly support continuation of the SALT process and the
negotiation of more far-reaching mutual restraints on nuclear weaponry.
CONCLUSION
We have new support in the world for our purposes of national independence
and individual human dignity. We have a new will at home to do what is
required to keep us the strongest nation on earth.
We must move together into this decade with the strength which comes from
realization of the dangers before us and from the confidence that together
we can overcome them. The White House, January 16, 1981.
