On September 22, 1862, the Emancipation Proclamation was given by Abraham Lincoln to finally mark a solution to end the civil war and make the Confederate States yield from their position of resisting the government. The argument lies in the declared call to make the Confederate States join the Union is that the Emancipation Proclamation of freeing the slaves only applies to States that rebel against the US government. Thus, it was not applicable to States who are from the Union. It was a strategy to attract the Confederate States to Join the Union so they can keep slavery within their borders.
You didn't list options, so I'll simply give some history here.
When President Ronald Reagan came into office in 1981, he took a hard stance toward the Soviet Union. Where previous leaders of the nations had pursued detente and nuclear arms reduction, Reagan spoke of the Soviet Union as the "evil empire" and, in 1983, proposed a major new space-based missile defense program, the Strategic Defense initiative.
But in 1985, the positions of the two countries began to shift again. In March 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev proposed policies of perestroika (restructuring) and glasnost (openness) in the Soviet Union. In November 1985, Reagan and Gorbachev met in person for the first of several summit meetings they would have, and developed a personal relationship.
In 1987, Reagan gave a speech in Berlin (a city divided between democratic West Berlin and communist East Berlin). In that speech he issued a famous personal appeal to Gorbachev, saying:
- <em>We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!</em>
I think they didn't want to fight in the war because they didn't know how they would be treated by the other soldiers but I don't think this bothers them today because they are used to it.
