A Letter From Ronald Reagan

To the Leaders of the United States,

I have spoken often of freedom, and I did not speak of it lightly. During my time, we faced adversaries who believed that power alone granted legitimacy. We defeated that idea not merely with weapons, but with alliances, clarity, and moral confidence. NATO was not a charity. It was the most successful security alliance in human history because it rested on trust, shared sacrifice, and the defense of democratic nations against coercion.

Let me be clear:

-An America that abandons its allies does not become stronger.

-An America that flirts with authoritarian logic does not become safer.

-An America that treats sovereignty as negotiable forfeits the moral authority that once made it a leader.

-Ukraine is not a bargaining chip.

-Greenland is not a prize.

-Allies are not clients.

Those who excuse aggression, who admire strongmen, or who believe that intimidation is “realism” have learned nothing from the Cold War, and would lose the peace their predecessors won.

Strength without values is tyranny. Power without restraint is decay. 

America’s greatness has always rested not on what it could take, but on what it refused to become.

Ronald Reagan
