San Marino National Day

Press Statement

Antony J. Blinken, Secretary of State

September 3, 2024

On behalf of the United States of America, I extend my warmest wishes to the people of San Marino as they celebrate the Feast of Saint Marinus, commemorating the founding of the world's oldest republic.

Our nations share a long-standing relationship dating back to 1861, built on mutual respect and shared values. We honor San Marino's enduring commitment to freedom and peace, and we continue to stand together in promoting these ideals through our international cooperation.

As a trusted friend and partner, the United States celebrates alongside the Sammarinese people today and wishes them a joyous Feast of Saint Marinus and a prosperous year ahead.
