Excerpt from Department of State Bulletin, Vol. 84: April-June 1984 In recent days, millions of citizens in side the Soviet Union, the United States, and countries throughout the world have been brought together by one great event - the Winter Olympics. The com petition is fierce, and we cheer for the men and women on our respective teams. But we can, and should, celebrate the triumphs of all athletes who compete in the true spirit of sportsmanship and give the very best of themselves. And when each race or event is done and our teams come together in friend ship, we will remember that we are meant to be one family of nations. We who are leaders in government have an obligation to strive for coopera tion every bit as hard as our athletes who reach within for the greatest efforts of their lives. If the Soviet Government would join us in this spirit, then together we could build a safer and far better world for the human family, not just for today but for generations to come.
