the
East
to
promote
true
openness,to
break
down
barriers
that
separate
people,to
create
a
safe,freer
world.
And
surely
there
is
no
better
place
than
Berlin,the
meeting
place
of
East
and
West,to
make
a
start.
Free
people
of
Berlin:Today,as
in
the
past,the
United
States
stands
for
the
strict
observance
and
full
implementation
of
all
parts
of
the
Four
Power
Agreement
of
1971.
Let
us
use
this
occasion,the
750th
anniversary
of
this
city,to
usher
in
a
new
era,to
seek
a
still
fuller,richer
life
for
the
Berlin
of
the
future.
Together,let
us
maintain
and
develop
the
ties
between
the
Federal
Republic
and
the
Western
sectors
of
Berlin,which
is
permitted
by
the
1971
agreement.
And
I
invite
Mr
Gorbachev:Let
us
work
to
bring
the
Eastern
and
Western
parts
of
the
city
closer
together,so
that
all
the
inhabitants
of
all
Berlin
can
enjoy
the
benefits
that
come
with
life
in
one
of
the
great
cities
of
the
world.
To
open
Berlin
still
further
to
all
Europe,East
and
West,let
us
expand
the
vital
air
access
to
this
city,finding
ways
of
making
commercial
air
service
to
Berlin
more
convenient,more
comfortable,and
more
economical.
We
look
to
the
day
when
West
Berlin
can
become
one
of
the
chief
aviation
hubs
in
all
central
Europe.
With
our
French
and
British
partners,the
United
States
is
prepared
to
help
bring
international
meetings
to
Berlin.
It
would
be
only
fitting
for
Berlin
to
serve
as
the
site
of
United
Nations
meetings,or
world
conferences
on
human
rights
and
arms
control
or
other
issues
that
call
for
international
cooperation.
There
is
no
better
way
to
establish
hope
for
the
future
than
to
enlighten
young
minds,and
we
would
be
honored
to
sponsor
summer
youth
exchanges,cultural
events,and
other
programs
for
young
Berhners
from
the
