On behalf of President Obama and the people of the United States, I 
congratulate all citizens of Mauritius as you celebrate the 46th year of
 your independence on March 12. The American people share your pride in 
the long-established democratic traditions that form the bedrock of our 
nations’ friendship. Mauritius has embraced the principles of democratic
 governance, economic reform, and social tolerance that serve as a model
 to others around the world. The United States appreciates Mauritius’ 
support for efforts to promote regional security and economic 
development. As you celebrate with family and friends, we wish the 
people of Mauritius continued peace and prosperity.
