New Delhi, July 3 (IBNS): President Pranab Mukherjee on Monday extended his greetings and felicitations to the Government and people of the United States of America on the eve of their Independence Day.

"The strategic partnership between our two nations – the world’s oldest democracy and the world’s largest democracy – is based on shared values and the growing convergence of our strategic interests. Today, our multi-faceted strategic partnership spans almost every aspect of human activity and has a critical global significance," he said.

"India attaches high priority to further expanding and deepening its relations with the United States. I am happy that the recent visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the United States and his discussions with you have provided greater opportunities for our two countries to take our mutually beneficial co-operation to greater heights in the years to come," Mukherjee said.
