"This has been a very constant and fruitful interrelationship between two people."
"Only 10 years later, in 1787, there was signed a treaty of friendship and commerce between the United States of America and the nation, the people of Morocco."
"We deeply appreciate this ancient and also this modern special privilege of being the friends of the people of Morocco."
"It's very reassuring to me as a President to know that I can enjoy the friendship and the support... historically bound our nations together."
