U.S. President George W. Bush pledged Monday to remember the «days of sorrow» following the tsunami that swept across the Indian Ocean a year earlier and killed more than 200,000 people, AP reported. The president said the United States will keep its commitment to help nations and their citizens rebuild. «At this time of remembrance, the thoughts and prayers of the American people are with those who suffered from this tragedy,» Bush said in a statement. «Our nation is proud of the efforts and generosity of our armed services, relief professionals, volunteers and all those who made contributions to the relief effort. «We remain committed to helping the citizens of affected nations rebuild their economies, communities, and lives.»
