Marco Rubio, Secretary of State Nepal Constitution DayOn behalf of the Government of the United States of America, I congratulate the people of Nepal on September 19 as you celebrate Nepal’s Constitution Day. The United States supports the Nepali people’s aspirations for a transparent government that adheres to the country’s Constitution, which is essential for achieving a democratic solution as you prepare for elections in the coming months. The United States joins the people of Nepal in mourning the loss of life and extends our condolences to the families of those killed and injured in recent protests. The people of Nepal deserve a hopeful future focused on advancing economic growth, strengthening regional security, and promoting prosperity for all. The Millennium Challenge Corporation Compact will support the expansion of Nepal’s transportation and energy infrastructure, create jobs, and drive long-term economic growth while strengthening the U.S.-Nepal partnership and creating business opportunities for American companies. We extend our congratulations to the people of Nepal on this day and look forward to continuing close cooperation with Nepal in promoting stability in South Asia and contributing to a safer and more secure world.
