原文:
We, the President of the United States, and the Prime Minister of Great Britain, have agreed to issue this joint statement, known as the Atlantic Charter, to affirm our resolve and to set forth the principles which should guide the nations in the future.
We believe that all the nations of the world, for their safety and welfare, should possess and retain full control without discrimination over their own natural resources; and that, by mutually agreed action, national armaments shall be reduced to the lowest point consistent with domestic safety.

We affirm our belief that ultimate victory in this war can only be achieved by the unification of the whole of the peoples of the British Empire, the United States, and the British Commonwealth of Nations with those of China, France, and the Soviet Union.
We affirm our belief that the Government of the United States and the Government of Great Britain will, in consultation with the Governments of the United States, the United Kingdom, and the British Commonwealth of Nations, as well as those of China, France, and the Soviet Union, seek a general agreement for the establishment of a system of general security for the maintenance of international and security.
