"I would like to extend my warm congratulations to Prime Minister Robert Abela, Deputy Prime Minister Ian Borg, Transportation Minister Chris Bonett, and the Government of Malta on the agreement granting Maltese-flagged yachts eligibility for cruising licenses that offer privileged access to American ports.

It is no coincidence this historic agreement only happened under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump. President Trump is committed to strengthening fair and balanced international trade, boosting maritime commerce, and deepening the strong bond between allies.

Malta is a true powerhouse in the global maritime industry, and this milestone reflects U.S. businesses are ready to support visitors from Malta. Congratulations once again, and smooth sailing ahead! GOD bless America and GOD bless Malta." - Ambassador Somers Farkas

“Take me out to the ballgame! It was a pleasure to stand alongside Andrew Bajo, president of the Malta Baseball & Softball Association, as he threw the first pitch of Saturday's friendly tournament. Softball is a great American pastime, and it was a real joy to see the sport thriving here in Malta. My thanks go to the Mustangs and the Mellieħa Northenders for welcoming the U.S. Embassy team onto the field, and to our friends and families who came out to cheer. Sport has a special way of bringing people together.” – Ambassador Somers Farkas

“I had the honor of joining British High Commissioner Victoria Busby, the George Cross Island Association (GCIA), Malta G.C. Branch, Armed Forces of Malta Brigadier Clinton O’Neill, and distinguished guests, at the GCIA annual luncheon celebrating the George Cross award to the Island and People of Malta. During World War II, the Maltese people held firm through relentless bombardment, hunger, and hardship. The United States joins our British and Maltese friends in honoring this legacy. In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt visited Malta and presented a scroll to the Maltese, saluting their bravery in the cause of freedom. Their resilience reminds us that freedom is never free. Thank you to the Association for keeping this history alive for new generations.” – Ambassador Somers Farkas

"Fantastic visit to General Soft Drinks Company (GSD) – a proud partner of The Coco-Cola Company (TCCC). We were warmly welcomed by Maria Micallef, Director of GSD, and Stephen Bonnici, Deputy General Manager, and enjoyed touring this impressively managed and well-run production and distribution hub. Coca-Cola is an American success story, and we appreciated knowing TCCC helped create jobs and opportunity here in Malta." – Ambassador Somers Farkas

On September 22 to 24, the United States Department of Justice’s Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, Assistance and Training conducted a three-day program for illicit finance prosecutors at the Malta Attorney General’s Office in Valletta. The OPDAT Resident Legal Advisor and two faculty members from DOJ’s National Advocacy Center led an Advanced Train-the-Trainers Program focusing on techniques for enhancing the government’s criminal arguments, case presentations, and advocacy in court. The training was so well received that the Attorney General’s Office has invited DOJ to come back to Malta for another train-the-trainers program in 2027. Train-the-trainer programs elevate the capabilities of U.S. law enforcement partners to fight money laundering impacting Americans and the foreign countries where they do business. Thank you to the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement for supporting this important initiative.
