 It was a great pleasure this afternoon to meet Prime Minister Trudeau. Our discussion covered a number of issues, just returned from Europe. Operations for the economic summit in Ottawa that begins some nine days from now for the seven industrial democracies that will be in attendance. All of our nations now face a common task of reducing inflation and increasing employment and improving long-term economic prospects for a year that achieving economic is challenged in the free world. And it's this challenge that shall lie at the heart of our summit in Ottawa. We must discuss not just our problems there, but I also hope from this summit there shall come a new sense of confidence and community among the industrial nations that economic recovery can be achieved. In our meetings our countries will reaffirm our fundamental partners with each other. For many years we've shared democratic political institutions, market economic systems, and even faith in human dignity and freedom. By meeting at this summit we will express our quiet determination to defend those institutions against any threat. Finally, let me say I look forward to this summit for personal reasons. I believe it's important to the vitality of our foreign policy that I have the opportunity to renew friendship with world leaders who've already visited here in Washington and also I have an opportunity to forge new relationships with those who've recently been elected to office. Prime Minister Trudeau join us in Ottawa. All agree that we can achieve both progress and peace only through a close and continuous cooperation which this meeting symbolizes. That's the basis of our partnership and partnership is the basis of our common task. Seeing you again. Ladies and gentlemen of the press, I'll present this summit easier by accepting to meet me today and discussing frankly not so much the areas of agreement which are many, but the areas of possible disagreement amongst those seven industrialized democracies which realized way back at the beginning of these summits to see how democracies solve their difficult economic problems. If we are successful in meeting the economic challenges, the difficult ones at its states is a sign and a guarantee of the close cooperation between countries in the advancement of that technology.
