According to the Estonian Head of State, the relations between Estonian and the United States have been stable and strong since Estonia became independent. President Ilves thanked the U.S. for never recognizing the annexation of Estonia by the Soviet Union.
The United States Ambassador thanked the President of the Republic for the honor conferred upon her, by saying that the time she has spent in Estonia has been special for her. I am glad that I was able to contribute to the development of relations between the U.S. and Estonia, said Ambassador Wos.
At the meeting, the development of civil society in Estonia, which the Ambassador has tried to assist, was discussed, as was educational cooperation, primarily the exchange of college students.
