The Czechoslovak people stand firmly in the camp of peace, determined to defend world peace, threatened by the instigators of a new war. He accepted challenge II with enthusiasm. The World Peace Defender Congress as an expression of the irrefutable determination of all honest people in the world to defend peace and prevent a new war.
He has already made clear in his new, popular democratic laws his will to protect the peaceful coexistence of nations and to punish all those who threaten peace.
