Remarks on Iraq
October 11, 1994

    Good morning. Our deployments in the Gulf region are continuing 
today. There has been no change in the pattern of Iraqi activity from 
yesterday, so we will continue our deployments.
    We received strong support from the international community for this 
approach. I talked with several world leaders yesterday. The British are 
already sending more troops, planes, and ships. So I'm quite encouraged 
about the direction of the events. We will just simply stay on course 
and judge what we should do as events unfold. But today I can tell you 
that we are continuing with our deployment and that there has been no 
change in the pattern of Iraqi activity to date.
    Thank you.

Note: The President spoke at 9:24 a.m. on the South Lawn at the White 
House, prior to his departure for Detroit, MI.
