The United States and Ireland share profound cultural and historical ties that form the bedrock of our enduring partnership, but we cannot take for granted this extraordinary relationship. 

Looking forward, I believe we must continue to cultivate our people-to-people ties and our growing trade and investment activity to bring us even closer together to the benefit of both our nations.
