Digitized from Box 12 of the White House Press Releases at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
June 25, 1975
Dear Mr. President:
I am pleased to inform you that the United States
Government extends recognition to Mozambique.
It is our hope, with your agreement, that
diplomatic relations can soon be established between
our two countries.
We congratulate your leaders and their Portuguese
colleagues on the wise statesmanship that has led
to Mozambique's independence.
The American people share with the people of
Mozambique the knowledge that hard-won individual
liberty and national independence can be preserved
only by unremitting labor and sacrifice.
As we strengthen and multiply our bonds of mutual
friendship, I-am confident of a future in which our
two peoples will work together in the freedom,
peace and security of all mankind.
Sincerely, Health R. Ford
His Excellency
Samora Moises Machel
President of the Peoples Republic of Mozambique
