United States President Donald Trump sent a congratulatory message to Montenegrin President Jakov Milatović on July 13, Montenegro's Statehood Day.
This was announced today by the Public Relations Office of the President of Montenegro.
The statement said that Trump emphasized that Independence Day is an opportunity to celebrate the enduring friendship between the two countries, built over more than 120 years of diplomatic relations.
"It is a relationship that has been further strengthened since Montenegro, a little over two decades ago, restored its independence," Trump said.
He said that he expects the partnership between Montenegro and the USA to further expand in the years to come.
He particularly pointed out the importance of the recently agreed intergovernmental agreement.
"The United States private sector, the world's most dynamic driver of investment, growth, and innovation, is ideally positioned to collaborate with Montenegro on projects in the areas of infrastructure, energy, security, and technology," Trump emphasized.
The congratulatory message also emphasized the importance of the alliance between Montenegro and the USA in preserving regional security and defending common democratic values.
"We are proud to stand with Montenegro, our ally," Trump said, wishing the citizens of Montenegro and the United States lasting peace and prosperity in the coming period.
