President John F. Kennedy delivered his famous Berlin speech on June 26, 1963, primarily to express solidarity with the people of West Berlin during the Cold War and to reaffirm the United States' commitment to defending West Berlin against the threat of communism. His iconic declaration, "Ich bin ein Berliner," aimed to bolster morale and demonstrate American support for the city as a symbol of freedom. The speech also served to signal to both the Soviet Union and the global community that the U.S. would stand firm against communist expansion.
