The United States of America plans to expand cooperation in the field of security and promotion of fundamental freedoms with Tajikistan. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said this in his congratulatory speech on the occasion of the celebration of Tajikistan's independence, according to the website of the American diplomatic mission.
«The United States and Tajikistan have built a strong partnership based on common goals, countless cultural and people-to-people connections, and a commitment to combat terrorist threats not only in Tajikistan, but throughout the region and around the world. We look forward to expanding our cooperation in the field of security and the promotion of fundamental freedoms, which form the basis of a stable and prosperous society», – the message says.
Blinken expressed confidence that regional relations in the C5 + 1 format will only strengthen as efforts are made in the global fight against climate change, as well as addressing human rights issues and trade and investment opportunities.
