Proclamation 8081 of November 2, 2006
World Freedom Day, 2006
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall was torn down by
the desire of a people to be free. On World Freedom
Day, we commemorate this historic event and reflect on
liberty's power to change lives and raise societies.
After decades of oppression, the fall of the Berlin
Wall brought the light of liberty to the people of East
Berlin, and the events that followed set the course for
a new era of freedom in Germany and in much of Central
and Eastern Europe. Today, we again face an ideological
struggle with the enemies of freedom, democracy, and
moderation. In this struggle, America will continue to
stand with those who seek to build societies where
people live in freedom and at peace with each other and
the world.
The collapse of the Berlin Wall demonstrated that when
liberty flourishes, nations become more tolerant,
hopeful, and secure. On World Freedom Day, we celebrate
the power of freedom and democracy. We are also
reminded that free countries have the responsibility to
work together to protect the fundamental rights of all
people and help others realize the blessings of
liberty.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United
States, do hereby proclaim November 9, 2006, as World
Freedom Day. I call upon the people of the United
States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies
and activities, reaffirming our dedication to freedom
and democracy.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
second day of November, in the year of our Lord two
thousand six, and of the Independence of the United
States of America the two hundred and thirty-first.
(Presidential Sig.)
