so, when he shows up at reykjavik it goes swimmingly well.wo were talking about reagan quips we can be meat back here in 10 years and we will destroy the last nuclear weapon together, right? it'll be just wonderful because all nuclear weapons would be gone. that is how optimistic reagan is that they will get something big at reykjavik. they outlined a deal that would have been major reduction or complete reduction in intermediate weapons, but they break up. its growth goes its separate way to talk about regroup before they come back to the table to make a deal. and when i come back to the table gorbachev says he has i've just one condition. sdi must be limited to the laboratory for 10 years. if you will agree, mr. president, to limit sdi, we can sign this agreement today. go out an announced it to the press. reagan is furious. reagan is absolutely furious. he feels betrayed. there were not supposed to be any conditions. so, reagan puts on his white coat, and he walks out. and conservatives hail reagan for this achievement, for saying no, for

so reagan walks out of reykjavik. but you know, the teams continue to talk. secretary schultz continues to talk with his counterpart, they continue to negotiate, and eventually, they agree to have another summit in washington. right? and in response to reports that the reagan administration is going to -- is going to sign an intercontinental ballistic missile treaty with the sovietess, national review runs an edition titled reagan's suicide pact, in which they criticize reagan and the inf treaty. it featured criticides from jack kemp, henny kissinger, and it took three forms. one, the treaty was not verifiable. two, it left the soviets with a significant advantage in conventional weapons, and they questioned whether or not the treaty was actually motivated by domestic political concerns. does anybody know what i'm talking about? iran contra, right? that president reagan was actually making this deal, not because he believed in it, but rather because he was so unpopular in that moment, his poll numbers were so far down, he was making this deal for political re

they were good reagan and gorbachev actually talked about discussed at reykjavik giving up on nuclear weapons and they were not released an agreement that they did find they have a treaty called the i.n.f. treaty where they get rid of them or they eliminate all of the medium range missile sadly that train has now been. you know withdrawn from the trainmen effect we know no longer have any significant treaties controlling arms except a new start treaty which is about to expire. tom there are other people now involving on russia in the united states how many countries have nuclear weapons 9 countries have nuclear weapons but russia and the united states maintain 90 percent of those weapons so when you talk about the nuclear dangers in the world it's really primarily the united states and russia and when you talk about the potential to end civilization as we know it again it's the united states and russia so that's why we focus on the false alarm danger the risk of the united states or russia blundering into a nuclear war which literally could end civilization as we know it. senator defe

that's an idea that president reagan president gorbachev crowd which they discussed seriously at reykjavikin 1986 they were not able finally to reach that agreement but they did follow up with their arms attorneys was reduced nuclear weapons now president reagan believed that nuclear weapons are a great danger and he was were can try to get rid of them but he did not always succeed president obama believing that they were great danger and he were to try to humor them and he did not succeed the forces resisting producing nuclear weapons are really very formidable who's in favor tom of keeping them. well you know and as i said because the american public by and large is has moved on to other issues those that benefit directly from nuclear weapons are the ones that have the most sway and the most say so that is the military part of the military that benefit from having nuclear weapons defense contractors who make billions of dollars every year from producing nuclear weapons members of congress who have those weapons in their districts and whose jobs in their districts they're protecting so th

there are a good reagan and gorbachev actually talked about discussed at reykjavik giving up on nuclear weapons and they were not releasing agreement that they did find they have a treaty called the i.n.f. treaty where they get rid of and where they eliminate all of the medium range missile sadly that train has now been. you know withdrawn from the trainmen effect we know no longer have any significant treaties controlling arms except a new start treaty which is about to expire. tom there are other people now involving on russia in the united states how many countries have nuclear weapons 9 countries have nuclear weapons but russia and the united states maintain 90 percent of those weapons so when you talk about the nuclear dangers in the world it's really primarily the united states and russia and when you talk about the potential to end civilization as we know it again it's the united states and russia so that's why we focus on the false alarm danger the risk of the united states or russia blundering into a nuclear war which literally could end civilization as we know it. as senator d

to just say reykjavÍk failed is one thing.o say they had this meeting and develops, it creates a tremendous sense of suspense. i wanted to do that but but i t have the subject. in february of 2019 it was the day president trump was going to deliver his state of the union address and nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, , invited several tv anchors over to her hideaway in the capital, this is the hideaway for a lot of speakers have an there's a tradition in washington that if the speaker and the president who are of opposing parties, this is true for for a republin president, democratic speaker and vice versa, that the speaker will deliver a pre-bath which is basically before the president delivered his speech to tell you all the reasons that it's bad. we are sitting in this room and nancy pelosi says this is the board of education to idle think of the folks in the room knew but i knew that the board of education had been sam ray burns hideaway and this is where he was at people, after hours to gossip or to plot charge or to

six years of reagan and the gorbachev summit that having cover that and real life, the drama of reykjavÍkand the possibility to be an all nuclear weapons and then it falls apart. but you say that it fell apart but they go there with the hopes it creates a tremendous sense of suspense. i wanted to do that but didn't have a subject in february 2019 the day president trump would deliver the state of the union and nancy pelosi invited several tv anchors to her hideaway in the capital. this is where a lot of speakers have a tradition in washington if the speaker and the president are of opposing parties the speaker will deliver a speech before to tell you all the reasons it is bad. so we're sitting in the room she says this is the board of education. i don't think anybody else knew but i knew that was the sam rayburn hideaway and this is where people would come after hours to gossip or have a bourbon and vice president truman was a regular so on april 12th he went over and policy is telling us the story that in this room truman called the white house and speaks to a white house official and sa

but, you know, having covered it in real life, the drama of reykjavik and these enormous discussionsect possibility that they might ban -- and the possibility that they might ban all nuclear weapons and then fit all -- then it all falls awe awe part. they went there with these hopes, and they had this meeting, and, you know, out creates a tremendous sense of suspense. so i wanted to do that, but you have a subject. in february of 2019, it was the day that president trump was going to deliver his state of the union address, and nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, invited several tv anchors over to her hideaway in the capitol. and this is a hideaway that a lot of speakers have, and this is a tradition in washington that the speaker and the president who are of opposing parties -- this is true for a republican president, democratic speaker and vice versa -- that the speaker will deliver a prebuttal to tell you all the reasons that it's bad. so we're sutting in this room -- sitting in this room, and nancy pelosi says this is the board of education. i don't think the other folks in th

>> no, it seems perhaps that way at reykjavik, when we finally found ourselves agreeing completely on the eventual eliminate of all of the weapons, and then the general secretary put the price on that as our stopping the development of sdi. so i came home. well, we're now back negotiating on a treaty to cut in half the strategic ballistic missiles. >> many people in europe, perhaps, i will logically are afraid both that sdi might be a sign of weakening american commitment, because the united states could defend itself but also that arms control agreements would also be a sign of weakening commitment. what do you say to those people? >> well, i have said it to them. i have met with our nato allies and made it plain exactly what i see as the goals not for just us but for all of us, all of them, too. and i think they see now they had -- i can understand it. they had been led to believe the nuclear umbrella, part of the basis for nato, was going to be eliminated and leave them facing that gigantic conventional force there. and i convinced them that, no, we had nothing of that kind in mind

talking to the evil empire when he went to reykjavik and he and gorbachev came to an historic agreement the discussion that is necessary to try to work out the rules of the road. i am convinced the biden administration will recognize the need to hold china accountable to standards of behaviors as we do several countries but simultaneously, we've got to work with china. you can't solve the cybercrisis. you can't solve nuclear weapons. you can't deal with north korea. you can't deal with the climate crisis without china at the table. it is vital. and i think that vice president biden, who has a strong relationship with president xi, who has been part of eight years of the successful management of many of these issues, understands exactly how we can go about that. that doesn't mean you say yes to them. it means you engage and if they are not willing to move in a reasonable way, then you may be forced to do things. but don't start with those things before you've exhausted the remedies available to you. >> former secretary of state john kerry, thank you very much for being on with us this mo
