The President of the United States of America sent a letter to President Serzh Sargsyan expressing deep gratitude of the United States to the Government and people of Armenia for the forces that Armenia contributed to Multinational Forces-Iraq since 2005.

“In the wake of Armenian troops’ completed mission in Iraq, I express the deep gratitude of the United States to the Government and people of Armenia for the forces your nation has contributed to Multinational Forces-Iraq since 2005. I express particular appreciation for the transportation and convoy security, de-mining, and medical support these forces provided.

The willingness of the Armenian people to support the establishment and strengthening of a democratic government in Iraq, despite great hardships, testifies to their strong spirit. Armenians can be proud of their participation in the successful operation to help Iraq secure its freedom.

The United States looks forward to pursuing further cooperation with Armenia on other common interests within the South Caucasus region and around the world,” as stated in the letter sent by George Bush.
