Dole said " as the Leader said the past is past and it is over. We look forward to the present and future to build strong relations, and I believe my role is to speed up that, using my long years in the Congress and our contacts with officials up down the American government in both the Republican and Democratic Party. We must be hopeful," JANA reported.
