Hillary Rodham Clinton, Secretary of State congratulates Mongolians on National
Day. “On behalf of President Obama and the people of the United States,
I congratulate the Mongolian people on your 89th National Day this July 11.
Mongolia’s transformation to a thriving democracy is an inspiration to people
around the world struggling to establish democracies in their own countries. I
witnessed the courage and leadership of the Mongolian people on my first visit
15 years ago when your democracy was still new, and today I am proud to once
again celebrate your history and reaffirm the bonds between our nations. I wish
all Mongolians a safe and happy holiday celebration and continued peace and
prosperity in the coming year.”
