“Peace and justice are two sides of the same coin”

President Dwight David “Ike” Eisenhower addressed the nation on February 20, 1957, regarding the Suez Crisis.
 
“We do, however, believe that upon the suppression of the present act of aggression and breach of the peace, there should be a greater effort of the United Nations and its members to secure justice and conformity with international law. Peace and justice are two sides of the same coin. Perhaps the world community is at fault for not having paid enough attention to this basic truth.”
 
Although Eisenhower coined the saying and is widely quoted for it, the concept that peace and justice are connected has been said to date back to at least the time of the ancient Greek philosophers, such as Plato.

We cannot consider that the armed invasion an occupation of another country are “peaceful means” or proper means to achieve justice and conformity with international law.
 
We do, however, believe that upon the suppression of the present act of aggression and breach of the peace, there should be a greater effort of the United Nations and its members to secure justice and conformity with international law. Peace and justice are two sides of the same coin.
 
Perhaps the world community is at fault for not having paid enough attention to this basic truth. The United States, for its part, will vigorously seek solutions of the problems of the area in accordance with justice and international law.
