Henry Kissinger Quotes
People are now starting to explain the Cold War. Even in the crises at that time the survival of millions of people was at stake. And we the USA had to threaten the other super power with retaliation to prevent it from doing something to us. Today we live in a world in which a lot of things are in flux. That creates a lot of fear. But it is also a time of great opportunity. And I would call on today's statesmen to not allow their thinking to be directed by fear.
