I often say that the relationship between Slovakia and the United States is many fold

00:17.199 --> 00:22.054
and we are friends, we are partners and we are also allies

00:22.707 --> 00:28.955
and an exercise such as this demonstrates all three of those relationships

00:29.396 --> 00:33.655
This is an example of our cooperation, but it does not come easily

00:33.734 --> 00:41.412
It takes a lot of work, a lot of preparation and we are very grateful to the Minister, to his Ministry

00:41.536 --> 00:48.622
and to the Slovak staff for all of the assistance they gave us in preparing for this exercise
