:35:00
The eleventh day of the
Missiles of October.
:35:05
Gentlemen, elements of
the medium-range missiles
:35:09
and surface to air systems
are now operational.
:35:13
The entire weapons complex
will be complete
:35:16
in a matter of days.
:35:19
The blockade hasn't had any effect.
:35:22
None.
:35:25
Bob, I want you to make preparations
to add oil,
:35:30
fuel, and lubricants to
the list of embargoed items.
:35:34
Right away, Mr. President.
:35:36
The missiles will be operational
:35:38
long before we squeeze them out of oil.
:35:46
Also we should, we should compile a list
:35:54
of all the Cuban doctors
in the Miami area
:36:00
for service in Cuba if we have to invade.
:36:06
I think I can organize that,
Mr. President.
:36:09
The United States Information Agency
should prepare
:36:12
leaflets of explanation to
the Cuban people
:36:16
advising them to seek safety,
:36:20
and explaining our motives.
:36:22
We'll coordinate that one, sir.
:36:28
Khrushchev's trying to bide
time to negotiate
:36:32
his way into maintaining those bases.
:36:37
But I've given him time to
extricate himself gracefully.
:36:42
Now we must convey
an uncompromising message,
:36:46
this government is prepared to negotiate,
:36:49
but not until those missiles
are removed from Cuba.
:36:54
We will not be deterred,
we will not be shaken.
:36:59
We'll bomb if we must,
we'll invade if we must.
