Kuwait. At this moment there are about 85.000 troops of the Soviet Union occupying Afghanistan. There are over 2 million refugees from Afghanistan now in Pakistan. We have Soviet strike aircraft much closer to the Persian Gulf than they were 3 years ago. and we were concerned 3 years ago with the gradual encirclement of the Middle East by forces that were either directly commanded by the Soviet Union or that could be influenced by the Soviet Union. It gives me a personal sense of regret to note that President Sadat. an ally of the United States. a friend of many of us. is now dead.
