What's this?

What other Presidents have said in times like these?


"There are certain things that the United States believes. We believe in freedom of speech. We believe in freedom of association. We believe in openness in government as befitting our traditions and our way of life.................I think it would be unrealistic to expect that we set those concerns aside. People have aspirations for freedom and dignity in countries all around the globe.”

"The United States has consistently supported the open system that is essential to Hong Kong's stability and prosperity, universal suffrage, and the aspirations of the Hong Kong people"
