Communiqué

28 May 1987
Description: In this communiqué, published after the 1987 PCC meeting in Berlin, the Warsaw Pact countries declare that their military doctrine is of a defensive nature and that it is based on the need to keep a balance of military forces at the lowest possible level, on the expediency of the reduction of military potentials to limits sufficient for defense. Secondly, the Warsaw Pact countries state that they are prepared to search for ways to further develop mutually advantageous economic, scientific, and technical cooperation with all countries advocating the removal of obstacles in trade and economic exchanges.
