 Thank you all for coming down this morning. I first want to thank those who worked so hard in support of our plans to help the freedom fighter in Nicaragua. We've made substantial progress in gathering support and calmness for our policies in Central America. The issue now goes back over to the House after a positive vote from the Senate. I want you all to know that I'll continue to do everything I can to help bring me over the remaining votes we need in the House with a tremendous effort that Bob Michael and you and the leadership have made I'm confident that we can succeed. Now I'd also like to mention the importance of our default arms sale to Saudi Arabia. We have forwarded this notification to Congress mindful of the concerns of man and yellow expression. But I think it's very important for us to remember the state we have in this critical region of the world. The Saudis look to us for help in meeting their defense needs. Recent events in the Iran-Iraq war attach a greater urgency to their requirements. Iran's success of lately has boldened it to take a more aggressive stance. The other Gulf states. The Saudis and others along the Gulf are looking for a tangible signal that the United States is willing to stand behind them. And now before calling on George Schultz, I want to mention that we had a lengthy discussion with Ambassador Dobrinan yesterday. And we have agreed we'll be meeting between George Schultz and Mr. Chevronazzi and they'll meet next month to further the sum of process as they do in Geneva. Now George. First of all, I'm going to thank you for being here coming down to discuss that. This is an important national security issue, and I appreciate the help that Mr. Schultz and others who worked with me prior to the last one to clarify the objectives of the terms that proposed assistance and to broaden the public understanding of the importance of the issue of our own interests. Some of you, I understand, still retain some reservations about the assistance package, which led to your opposition of the last vote. Since the House voted, you know the Senate has approved the assistance package, subject to certain conditions which John previously had agreed to implement under an executive order, but those conditions are now included in the legislation which passed the Senate. Other events have occurred since the House vote, which I'll ask John and Kelly and Abrams to describe in more detail. These events, the invasion of Honduras by Nicaragua and the lack of progress in the latest Conradora effort to move toward a negotiated resolution of the conflict in Central America underscores the urgent need, I think, for effective support for the Democratic resistance there. It's significant. I don't know how many of us sincerely feel that it would be fine if we could have a negotiated resolution. Now, once again, with the families of the government that walked out on the Conradora and refused to go along with their proposal. But by providing the support that we can, we can have to ensure against the consolidation, I think, of the Conradora regime in Nicaragua. And against further repression of the Nicaraguan people and intimidation of his neighbors. I want to assure each of you and my continued support for the Conradora objectives, and I share the hope of a peaceful negotiated settlement of the conflict in Central America. The assistance which I have proposed is designed to encourage San Luis to participation in a diplomatic resolution of the internal conflict in Nicaragua, and of the conflicts with Nicaragua's neighbors. Failure to provide such assistance will only encourage the Sandinista government's attempt to eliminate the Democratic resistance rather than negotiate it, and its continued aggression and subversion against its neighbors. And we just can't allow this to happen when it's within our needs to stop. Now, I'm going to ask John Condex Jr. David to win the Sunday table in the recent events in Central America, and on the full assistance package, and then we'll have more of a dialogue in this in Nicaragua. Thank you, Mr. President. I wanted to cover the national side. Mr. President, good to see you again. Good to see you. Good to see you, too. Mr. President, it's a great pleasure. Good to see you.

Rest the engine behind the car. Drop the show behind the car. Yeah. No, we need to separate honey and honey canes so we can see Mark. Why? There's no problem. I think there's a bunch of colors there. There's a bunch of blacks. And if you two got us in the back row there, if you could just, for the picture, I know. I know. Okay, where are you going? Good smile, Judy. Mark's not smiling. That's because you're lost. We're going to go. Okay, one more. Here you go. Thank you. Thank you. Lights. Lights. Lights. There are all these memos and things. One of my... I know I've gotten a new pad that I've been using anywhere. My... I'm not a lucky person. I'm not a lucky person. But I was taught. I was handed one by a very distinguished lady the other day. It was our booth loose. And I just... I'm fascinated by her memo pad. This now comes from a beautiful... very good. All right. That's good. I think everyone ought to have a set of memo pads. I think so. That's right. I think everyone ought to be nice. Mr. Craver and I have one that says we've been in big trouble if the Russians ever see this. I got another one here too. No more. No more. Oh, you know it's... Well, it's nice to see you all and have a chance to thank all of you for all that you do, although you still don't have the way I was press-cortrained yet. Working on that. I have a follow-up, Mr. President. Bringing Gertrude now. What about the body goals, Mr. President? I don't know what that was all about, but I sure would have trapped it. I couldn't stand and walk away from it. We've got more research on that than you would want to do. Something about this guy's brother is big in the mighty building business. The guy that she mentioned has a brother that's big in it. Now, where the award comes in, I don't know. But we've got several news stories that they pulled for you on that. There's a camera here and I'd go into one of those. Incidentally, do they know? You didn't hear it from me. Do any of them know about in China when she managed to get down with us? You know that big excavation in China with these 800? Do you know how she got down there? Do you know how she got down there? You know, without the hat on them, you know her hairdo is part of the middle of white. And she was trying to get down and they're not going to get down to the Chinese. She's starting this Chinese garden with all these silver and Gary Schuster went over to the garden and showed him a dollar bill and he says, look, this woman's picture is on every dollar bill. And damn it, he didn't let her go and she came down. I don't want to rage. That's okay. This way, sir. This way, please. This way, please. This way, please. This way, please. This way, please. Lights. The next time you see us, we'll have 50 press all around. Lights, thank you. How do you do? How do you do, sir? Thank you for seeing me. Well, listen, it's a great pleasure to see you and to be able to thank you for all that you've done for us. No, I'm still doing it. So I'll be with you tomorrow in a pre-brief on Nakasani's visit and see you all in the plane. My wife is down there. Hi, John. Hi, this is my daughter, Kathy. Nice to meet you. Good to see you. Chris. Thanks, President. How are you? How are we doing? How are we doing? Yeah, we can't click all that, sir. That's right. Okay. Thanks very much. Thank you. Thank you so you don't forget us. And then you know I'm not doing that. That's good. Thank you so much. John, in case you... There you go. Nice. This is to the end, sir. For your time for this. Thank you. Thank you, sir. It was wonderful. Nice. You take the time off. Thank you. The better in person. Thank you. Thank you.
