The United Kingdom, Canada and the United States of America have sent messages to the President following his re-election on 21st May.
Following are excerpts from the UK, Canada and USA messages:
“I congratulate you on your re-appointment as President of the Seychelles following recent elections....The UK and the Seychelles have excellent bilateral relations....In particular we value the lead role the Seychelles is playing in the international fight against piracy, and are keen to continue working closely with you on this issue. The positive stance that the Seychelles has taken acts as an example to others in the region.
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, HE David Cameron
“Your re-election is a testimony to the trust placed in you by the people of Seychelles. The leadership that you demonstrated in responding to the economic crisis of 2008 enabled Seychelles to recover quickly from the global recession and to enjoy renewed budget surpluses by 2010.…In particular I would like to commend Seychelles for the role it is playing to address the problem of piracy in the Indian Ocean. Your leadership on the issues of concern to Small Island Developing States is also noteworthy.”
Prime Minister of Canada, HE Stephen Harper
“Please accept my warmest congratulations, both personally and on behalf of the American people. The Seychellois people have just chosen you to preside over their future for the forthcoming years. Your victory rewards a determined commitment to serving the Seychellois people. Our countries have succeeded in developing a close partnership in every sphere: political, cultural, economic and strategic. I want to assure you of my determination to work with you to strengthen it.”
ChargĂ© d’Affaires, Embassy of the United States of America, Mauritius, HE Troy Fitrell
