 Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States. Secretary Shultz has reported to me on the results of his talks with the Soviet Foreign Minister, Shereenazi. As you know, the talks covered arms reduction, regional conflicts, human rights, and bilateral issues. Although we have serious differences in many areas, the tone of the talks was frank, constructive, and notable progress was made. Secretary Shultz and Foreign Minister Shereenazi have issued a joint statement, which I believe you all have now, and I'm pleased to note that agreement in principles was reached to conclude an INF Treaty. They'll meet again in Moscow next month to continue their efforts and to work out the details of a summit between me and General Secretary Gorbachev later this fall. I want to congratulate Secretary Shultz and Foreign Minister Shereenazi on their delegations for their outstanding efforts over the past three days. Secretary is going to take your question. Let's break through. Let's cause the breakthrough. Well, I'll tell you, I think the one who can best answer that and is going to take your questions is the Secretary. I was going to ask Andrea to interpret for me, but I did hear. I heard that phrase about the shooting, and the Secretary has already launched or furthered a protest. I don't know of anything in my life. I waited over six years for it. I spoke about this INF Treaty and pretty much the same basis that has finally been agreed yet. You know, certainly four or five years ago. What about the shooting of an American? I told you that the Secretary has already launched a protest. What about the Eagle Empire? You have opposed it for years. Why now are you ready to make a deal with it? Oh, I don't think it's still Lily White. What about the fact that the Senate has just voted to restrict SDI testing? How do you view that in terms of what's happening now between the U.S. and Soviet countries? How does that affect the negotiations perhaps on strategic weapons assistance? You just spoiled my day. No, I think that some foolish things are being attempted when members of the Congress start to get into where they can interfere with what we're trying to negotiate in the progress that we've made. But listen, I'm glad to talk to the Ranch for Thanksgiving. What? Are you hoping to ask Mr. Gorbachev to the Ranch for Thanksgiving? I'm afraid to say anything about a specific date, because there's still a tendency then to think that I've killed that date, if I mention it. Mr. President, you didn't say whether or not the summit would be in the United States. It will be, I assume. I said this is it. Where else? Yeah. But has there been progress on strategic weapons, on sublimits, on the big missiles, and is there some flexibility on SDIs? These are questions that I think he can speak specifically to because of the long hours of meetings. And I must say for all of the people who have been on our team here, one is their team. They really have gone beyond the call of duty with the hours that they have believed. What gives the balance on this? You don't know what actually caused it? I think you'll find that out from him. Did you bring his cap? Why would you rather be talked to? Our cap was present then at luncheon and in the meeting here in the White House with the President, and was invited to our dinner. He wasn't able to come because he was, I think, in Philadelphia. May I ask you about the protest, which the President says you have lodged against the shooting of American soldiers for the Soviets? Yes. We heard about this late yesterday afternoon and immediately took it up with Foreign Minister Shevronatsy and expressed our view that this is just unacceptable behavior. Okay.
