ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

On behalf of the Government of the United States of America, I offer my sincere congratulations to the people of Nepal as you celebrate Nepal’s Constitution Day on September 19.

The United States greatly values its 77 years of friendship with Nepal. "We are proud of our joint efforts to strengthen people-to-people ties, boost economic growth through initiatives like the debt-free partnership with the Millennium Challenge Corporation, promote justice, and uphold democratic principles," reads a statement. The U.S. remains committed to working with Nepal to increase its climate resilience and advance its transition to clean energy. "We look forward to our continued close collaboration in the years to come."

This is also an important moment to recognize many of Nepal’s achievements, including the recent passage of historic transitional justice legislation. "We look forward to its successful implementation bringing justice for victims and survivors."

"My warmest wishes as you celebrate Constitution Day."
