This month marks a notable anniversary --

200 years since the Battle of New Orleans.

Here in America, we call it a great victory over

Our British friends call it a technicality.

The treaty ending the war was signed weeks before.

On this 200th anniversary of a great American victory,

we count the United Kingdom as one of our

And today it's a great pleasure to welcome

Prime Minister David Cameron back to the White House.

Now, as many of you know, David recently noted how

comfortable the two of us are working together.

This sent some commentators into a tizzy.

Some explored the linguistic origins of the word "bro."

Several analyzed how this term has evolved over time.

Some seemed confused and asked -- what does Obama mean?

And so, let me to put this speculation to rest.

He's one of my closest and most trusted partners

On many of the most pressing challenges that

when the United States and United Kingdom stand together,

our nations are more secure and our people are more

prosperous, and the world is safer and more just.

Great Britain is our indispensable partner,

and David has been personally an outstanding partner,

With both of our economies growing and unemployment

falling, we used our working dinner last night to discuss

how we can help create more jobs for our people.

We believe that this needs to be the year when the United States

and the European Union make real progress toward the

Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.

And we share the view that boosting demand

in Europe can also keep our economies growing.

As innovative economies in this information age,

we're expanding our collaboration on digital

technologies to improve how our governments serve

Given the urgent and growing danger of cyber threats,

we've decided to expand our cooperation on cybersecurity

our businesses and the privacy of our people.

And as leaders in the global fight against climate change,

we believe that a strong commitment to reducing

greenhouse gases will be an essential element of any

ambitious climate agreement that we seek in Paris this

year and that this actually will help spur the creation

of more clean energy jobs on both sides of the Atlantic.

With regard to security, American-British unity is

enabling us to meet challenges in Europe and beyond.

We agree on the need to maintain strong sanctions

against Russia until it ends its aggression in Ukraine,

and on the need to support Ukraine as it implements

important economic and democratic reforms.

We agree that the international community

to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

And I'd add that additional sanctions on Iran at this

time would undermine that international unity

and set back our chances for a diplomatic solution.

we urge the world to continue stepping up with the resources

that are required so that we don't simply stop this

disease, we do more to prevent future epidemics.

And in the wake of the vicious attacks in Paris,

as well as the news surfacing out of Belgium,

today we continue to stand unequivocally not only with

our French friends and allies, but with also all

of our partners who are dealing with this scourge.

I know David joins me when I say that we will continue

to do everything in our power to help France seek the justice

that is needed and that all our countries are working

together seamlessly to prevent attacks and to defeat

With our combat mission in Afghanistan over,

we're also focused with our NATO allies on advising

and assisting and equipping Afghan forces to secure their

own country and deny to al Qaeda any safe haven there.

We'll continue to count on our British allies as our --

one of our strongest counterterrorism partners,

whether it's helping countries fight back against

al Qaeda affiliates or Boko Haram in Nigeria.

We reviewed our coalition's progress against ISIL.

We are systematically taking out their fighters,

we are putting them on the defensive and helping

local forces in Iraq push these terrorists back.

And David and I agree that we need to keep stepping
