On behalf of the Government of the United States of America, I offer heartfelt congratulations to Zambians everywhere on your Independence Day this October 24.
Zambians from all corners of the country and around the world have worked tirelessly to secure a more prosperous and inclusive future. Thanks to these efforts, Zambia today stands as a beacon of democratic resilience and economic revitalization. In the face of generational challenges, Zambia has prioritized lasting solutions over quick fixes and committed to ideals over expediency. As a result, Zambia has emerged as a model for countries that seek to invest in their people – and in doing so, their future.
Today, we celebrate Zambia and the longstanding U.S.-Zambia partnership.
