Mr. Vice President,
Our American friends,
My colleagues,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
On behalf of all the members of our mission, I would like to express our sincere thanks to you for inviting us to such a marvelous Christmas party.
We really enjoyed the delicious food and excellent wine. Also, the music was perfect. I enjoyed meeting and talking to you, and sharing the time together. As we say, well begun is half done. I hope we will be able to maintain this good relationship and make next year another great one together.
