President Reagan In Europe (1982 Original Colored Film)

*President Reagan in Europe* (1982) documents highlights from President Ronald Reagan’s first major trip abroad, which took place in June 1982. During this pivotal visit, Reagan attended the G7 economic summit and engaged with key allies in France, the United Kingdom, Italy, and West Germany. The trip emphasized two of his administration’s core foreign policy concerns—economic relations and security cooperation.

The video features Reagan’s major speeches, including his June 2 remarks at the White House before departure, his historic June 8 address to the British Parliament, and his June 9 speech before the Bundestag in Bonn, West Germany. Additionally, the program includes a post-trip analysis of the visit’s impact, with commentary from Hugh Sidey (Washington contributing editor of *Time* magazine), Robert Hormats (Assistant Secretary of State for Economic and Business Affairs), and Richard Burt (Assistant Secretary-Designate for European Affairs).
