US Congress President Nancy Pelosi recognized the contribution of more than 200,000 Ghanaians residing in America.

Ms. Pelosi, who addressed the Ghanaian Parliament on Wednesday, July 31, 2019, said: "We are blessed in the United States with about 200,000 Ghanaians who only strengthen the vitality of our country."

Pelosi was accompanied by the US Congressional Black Caucus in Ghana as part of the Accra Year of Return, on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the first African slave landed in James Town, United States.

She told the Ghanaian Parliament that she sees the country as a key partner in various areas of cooperation.

The United States, noted Pelosi, reinforces the friendship between the two countries established by Ghana's first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, more than six decades ago.

She lamented that the era of slavery is a "sad story", but she expressed her optimism about "a better and more productive relationship between the United States and the African continent".

At a previous meeting with President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on Monday, July 29, 2019, Ms. Pelosi commended Ghana for its strength as the exporter of security and peace in the world, stating that: "Militarily, politically, culturally In any case, we salute Ghana. "

She praised Ghana's democratic credentials and its relative stability in the region.
