This excerpt is from the Tonkin Gulf Resolution, 1968.

powers of the president?

...Congress approves and supports the determination of the President, as

Commander in Chief, to take all necessary measures to repel any armed

attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further

aggression.

The United States regards as vital to its national interest and to world

peace the maintenance of international peace and security in southeast

This excerpt is from a speech by President Nixon in 1971.

Good evening:

I have requested this television time tonight to announce a major

development in our efforts to build a lasting peace in the world.

As I have pointed out on a number of occasions over the past 3

years, there can be no stable and enduring peace without the

participation of the People’s Republic of China and its 750 million

people. That is why I have undertaken initiatives in several areas to

open the door for more normal relations between our two

countries.

The announcement I shall now read is being issued simultaneously

in Peking and in the United States:

Premier Chou En-lai and Dr. Henry Kissinger, President Nixon’s

Assistant for National Security Affairs, held talks in Peking from

July 9 to 11, 1971. Knowing of President Nixon’s expressed desire

to visit the People’s Republic of China, Premier Chou En-lai, on

behalf of the Government of the People’s Republic of China, has

extended an invitation to President Nixon to visit China at an

appropriate date before May 1972. President Nixon has accepted

the invitation with pleasure. In anticipation of the inevitable speculation which will follow this

announcement, I want to put our policy in the clearest possible

context. Our action in seeking a new relationship with the People’s

Republic of China will not be at the expense of our old friends. It is

not directed against any other nation. We seek friendly relations

with all nations. Any nation can be our friend without being any other nation’s enemy.

- President Richard Nixon, 1971
