Anybody who asks for democracy to be introduced should respect the results of democracy.

I think people respect governments that take decisions and act decisively.

We have accepted the principle of democracy and we are committed to respect the popular verdict and the result of that national consultation.

We respect opposition to any position or policy. But we believe that the opinion that should prevail and be respected is that of the majority.

I have such respect for 'Democracy Now!'

I call on the international community to be fair to the Iraqi people. My position is that we respect international resolutions but in return demand justice and accountability for those who stole Iraq's money.

Bring it on. Dissent is central to any democracy.

It is with obedience to your call that I take up the burden of government leadership for the final time.

I respect, too, the fact that in our legal order it is for Congress and not the courts to write new laws. It is the role of judges to apply, not alter, the work of the people's representatives.

Respect for the rights of others means peace.
