Republic of the Marshall Islands National Day
On behalf of the people of the United States, I send our best wishes to the people of the Republic of the Marshall Islands as you celebrate the 46th anniversary of your independence.
The United States values the close and special relationship we share through our Compact of Free Association, which ensures our mutual safety, enhanced strength, and greater prosperity. Together, we promote freedom, sustainable economic growth, and resilience in the Pacific and beyond. We deeply appreciate the contributions of the Marshallese to regional security, including the many dedicated Marshallese who serve in the U.S. armed forces. Your engagements in the Pacific to promote our many shared interests are invaluable.
As we commemorate this important day, we reaffirm our commitment to working together to address the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. The United States remains dedicated to strengthening our partnership and supporting your nation’s continued progress and success.
