The United States deeply values the friendly relations with Armenia, said US State Secretary John Kerry in a message issued on the occasion of Armenian Independence Day.
“In the past quarter century, Armenia has made great progress, and my government looks forward to continuing to work closely with you in support of shared prosperity, strong democratic institutions, the rule of law, and regional peace. We appreciate Armenia’s consistent support for effective international peacekeeping operations and its leading role in responding to the Syrian refugee crisis. We are also grateful for the presence in the United States of a vibrant and highly-accomplished Armenian-American community.
On this special day, I offer best wishes to all Armenians for a peaceful and prosperous year to come.”
