Reporters. 07:29:00 MS SOF: ...The “crisis” over Berlin is Soviet-manufactured. (edit) We would agree that there is unfinished business to be settled as concerns Germany. For many years, the Western nations have proposed a permanent & peaceful settlement of such questions on the basis of self-determination of the German people. Moreover, we shall always be ready to discuss any proposals which would give increased protection to the right of the people of Berlin to exercise their independent choice as free men. The proposals which have now been placed before us move in the opposite direction and are so recognized throughout the world. Discussions will be profitable if the Soviets will accept in Berlin, and indeed in Europe, self-determination which they profess in others parts of the world, and if they will work sincerely for peace rather than an extension of power.” 28Jun61; Anti-Communism; Negotiations; JFK statement; NOTE: Sold at per reel rate.
