On behalf of the United States of America, I offer my heartfelt congratulations to the people of Uruguay as you mark the 201st anniversary of your independence.

The friendship between the United States and Uruguay reflects our shared commitment to democracy and liberty. Our two nations continue to build on this foundation through growing trade, cooperation to counter regional security threats, and the vibrant ties between our citizens.

I am confident that the partnership between the United States and Uruguay will continue to flourish in the years to come, bringing greater prosperity and opportunity to both our peoples.

Please accept my best wishes for a joyful celebration.
