PLEASE ACCEPT MY MOST SINCERE AND WARMEST CONGRATULATIONS ON
THIS HAPPY OCCASION, WHEN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

THE HISTORIC RELATIONS BETWEEN PANAMA AND THE UNITED STATES

PARTNERS, EXPANDING THE BILATERAL COOPERATION IN DIVERSE
DISCIPLINES WHERE AGREEMENTS HAVE BEEN SIGNED. PROOF OF

AGREEMENT, WHICH I HOPE WILL BE SIGNED DURING THIS YEAR.
I TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY, MR. PRESIDENT, TO THANK YOU FOR THE
EXCELLENT HOSPITALITY THAT YOU PROVIDED ME, AS WELL AS THE
DELEGATION THAT ACCOMPANIED ME, ON THE OCCASION OF THE WORK
MEETING WE HELD THIS PAST APRIL, TO REVIEW OUR COMMON
AGENDA. ALSO, I WISH TO RENEW THE COMMITMENT OF CONTINUING
TO WORK WITH YOUR EXCELLENCY, FOR THE CONSOLIDATION OF OUR
DEMOCRACIES, TRANSPARENCY, GOVERNANCE AND MUTUAL RESPECT.
I ALSO PROPOSE TO COMBINE EFFORTS, IN THE INTERNATIONAL
ARENA TO CONTRIBUTE SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE PROMOTION OF
INTERNATIONAL PEACE, SECURITY AND STABILITY.
