On behalf of the Government states and the American people, We congratulate the people of Burkina Faso as you celebrate your own 62nd National Day.
This past year has been a trying time for Burkina Faso as the nation has faced unprecedented security challenges. The United States witnessed first-hand the strength and fortitude of the Burkinabe people when a high-level United states delegation visited in Oct. The United States remains dedicated to working with you to make the distributed vision of a secure, successful, and democratic Burkina Faso a reality through support pertaining to territorial sovereignty, education, democracy, human rights, health, food security, and economic development.
