U.S.-Czechia Relations
The United States established diplomatic relations with the Czech Republic in 1993 after then-Czechoslovakia split into two separate independent republics.

Relations between the United States and the Czech Republic are excellent and reflect our common approach to the many challenges facing the world. The Czech Republic is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the European Union (EU) and is an important and reliable ally in promoting U.S. interests. Our countries have worked together to strengthen security, promote economic development and democratic values, and defend basic human rights. The United States looks to the Czech Republic as a partner in regions around the world, including Afghanistan as part of NATO’s Resolute Support Mission, Iraq as part of Operation Enduring Freedom and the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, and Syria where the Czechs serve as U.S. protecting power.
