President Reagan says, "We don’t hide our space We don’t keep secrets and cover things up. We do it all up front and in public" (lines 35–37). What purpose do these sentences serve in the context of the overall speech?

Answer:

It serves as a case study to show that America was a democratic and free xountrycountry.

Step-by-step explanation:

President Ronald Reagan was addressing Soviet students in the Moscow state University in 1988 when he went to the Soviet Union.

He was talking to the students about freedom, about democracy and a new revolution he called industrial revolution. In demonstrating to the students about how the United States were big advocates of freedom and democracy, he made that speech in lines 35-37 to prove that most things in America were open and easily accessible to the citizens.

President Reagan was a well known anti-communist.
