On behalf of the United States of America, I would like to offer my warm congratulations to the people and government of Mauritius on the 57th anniversary of your independence.
Mauritius sets a strong example of economic growth and is an exemplary model of a steady democracy in Africa and the Indian Ocean Region. The United States deeply values our partnership with Mauritius. We look forward to continued collaboration on trade, maritime security, educational exchanges, and the pursuit of greater economic development that benefits both the American and Mauritian people.
We wish you continued peace, prosperity, and happiness as you celebrate.
