On behalf of the Government and the people of Somalia, I extend my cordial congratulations to the nation and the great people of America on this special day of independence.
The United States of America is a valuable supporter and ally of Somalia in many areas of mutual benefit. We are grateful for this enduring demonstration of solidarity.
Thanks to an engaged, active and productive Somali-American Diaspora community, our two nations have forged strong people to people relations which benefits our two sides.
Given the importance Somalia attached to its relations with the USA, we seek to strengthen our two sides bilateral relations further to provide the best opportunity for progress and prosperity for our two nations.
