The Embassy of the United States is aware that a press statement issued by the Embassy on June 7, 2019, has been altered with a new date and circulated to Chadian media outlets. The Embassy has not re-issued the June 7, 2019 statement and the purported statement dated February 21, 2020 was not issued by the Embassy.
