"The occasion has come for us to manifest again our national unity in support of freedom and to show our deep respect for the rights and independence of every nation—however great, however small. We seek not violence, but peace. To this purpose we must now devote our energies, our determination, ourselves." - This is the last part of Eisenhower's speech. In this line he is saying that everyone should have peace no matter the nation. We don't want violence but to get peace we must have violence.
