Description
On June 26, 1963, President John F. Kennedy delivered a speech in West Berlin in which he commended the struggle of East Germans as a symbol of freedom during the cold war, and pledged U.S. support of the city (which had been divided by the recently-built Berlin Wall) by announcing "Ich bin ein Berliner" ("I am a citizen of Berlin".) The statement confirmed that the United States would not reduce its presence in East Germany, marking a major turning point in the cold war with the Soviet Union.
