SPOKANE, Wash. - President
Ronald Reagan called for; “The
broadest people-to-people ex
changes in the history of
American-Soviet relationships”
during the Summit Conference in
Geneva. Later, when addressing
students at a high school in
Maryland, he stated: “We should
have no illusions that people-to
people contact will solve all the
problems that exist between us.
The Soviet Union is not a
democracy...” Reagan warned,
“But these exchanges are a
beginning to building a better
world, one based on better human
understanding.”
