Congratulatory Message by Ambassador Erzhan Kazykhanov on the occasion of the 29th Anniversary of the Kazakhstan’s Independence Day

12/16/2020

U.S. Embassy in Kazakhstan / Посольство США в Казахстане

“Мен АҚШ үкіметі мен Америка халқының атынан Қазақстан халқына Тәуелсіздіктің 29 жылдығына орай құттықтау жолдаймын.
Кейінгі 29 жылда Қазақстан Орталық Азия елдері арасында бейбітшілік, тұрақтылық пен өркендеуді ілгерілету бойынша көшбасшы атанды. Шамамен үш онжылдық бұрын Америка Құрама Штаттары Қазақстанның тәуелсіздігін мойындаған алғашқы мемлекет болды және біз алдағы жылдары экономикалық, үкіметаралық және адамдар арасындағы одан да мықты байланыстар орнатамыз деп үміттенеміз. Біздің елдеріміз COVID-19 пандемиясының сын-қатерлеріне тап болғанына қарамастан, Америка Құрама Штаттары Қазақстанмен берік серіктестікті және тұрақты, қауіпсіз, демократиялық және гүлденген болашақ құру жолындағы ортақ жұмысымызды атап өтеді.
Мен Қазақстан халқын осы маңызды күнмен құттықтаймын” - АҚШ-тың Мемлекеттік хатшысы.

🇺🇸🇰🇿

“От имени правительства США и американского народа я передаю поздравления народу Казахстана в связи с празднованием 29-й годовщины независимости.
За последние 29 лет Казахстан стал лидером среди стран Центральной Азии в продвижении мира, стабильности и процветания. Почти три десятилетия назад США были первой страной, признавшей независимость Казахстана, и мы надеемся на построение еще более крепких экономических, межправительственных и межличностных связей в ближайшие годы. Несмотря на то, что наши страны противостоят вызовам пандемии COVID-19, США отмечают прочное партнерство с Казахстаном и нашу общую работу над построением более стабильного, безопасного, демократического и процветающего будущего.
Поздравляю народ Казахстана с этим важным событием”, - Госсекретарь США Майкл Помпео.
