Statement by the Press Secretary
Golden Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II
On behalf of the American people, President and Mrs. Bush offer
their warmest congratulations to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and to the
people of the United Kingdom on the occasion of the Queen's Golden
Jubilee.
The United States has no closer ally than Great Britain. Our
nations share an exceptionally close relationship based on innumerable
personal and business ties among our people, a common culture, language
and civilization, and a political and military alliance that is
successfully facing common threats. All Americans send their best
wishes to Her Majesty The Queen, and to the people of the United
Kingdom, as they celebrate this important event.
