Question

Shortly after the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the Japanese during World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill came to the United States to meet with President Franklin Roosevelt. Read the following excerpt from a speech he delivered on Christmas Eve. What is Churchill’s purpose in this part of his speech?
I spend this anniversary and festival far from my country, far from my family, yet I cannot truthfully say that I feel far from home. Whether it be the ties of blood on my mother's side, or the friendships I have developed here over many years of active life, or the commanding sentiment of comradeship in the common cause of great peoples who speak the same language, who kneel at the same altars and, to a very large extent, pursue the same ideals, I cannot feel myself a stranger here in the centre and at the summit of the United States. I feel a sense of unity and fraternal association which, added to the kindliness of your welcome, convinces me that I have a right to sit at your fireside and share your Christmas joys.
