Additional quotes by Margaret Thatcher
I'm the world's greatest fan of your President [<nowiki/>Ronald Reagan], as you know. I think he's done terrific things and I think that in his recent speech, the keynote that he struck, that America is a confident leader of the free world, is the right one and I'm absolutely delighted at the way in which confidence had returned to the United States.
