Palau gained its independence October 1, 1994, with the entry into force of the Compact of Free Association with the United States. Palau was the last Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands territories to gain its independence. Under the Compact, the U.S. remains responsible for Palau's defense for 50 years. Palau is a sovereign nation and conducts its own foreign relations. From its independence until May 2006, Palau had established diplomatic relations with 40 sovereign countries.〔http://www.doi.gov/oia/islands/upload/PalauDipRelations.pdf〕 Since then, it has established bilateral relations with over 10 other nations,〔http://www.oceaniatv.net/2013/09/04/palau-formally-establishes-diplomatic-relations-with-the-cook-islands/〕〔http://ubpost.mongolnews.mn/?p=7986〕〔http://vm.ee/en/news/estonia-established-diplomatic-relations-republic-palau〕〔http://www.infomongolia.com/ct/ci/6768〕〔http://mission-un-ny.mfa.lt/index.php?745614097〕〔http://www.vietnamembassy-philippines.org/en/nr070521165843/nr070725021758/ns080904160531〕〔http://www.topix.com/forum/world/palau/TASL4FH18DCSJP0G6〕〔http://bruneiembassy.be/brunei-darussalam-palau-establish-diplomatic-relations/〕〔http://www.mfa.gov.ge/index.php?lang_id=ENG&sec_id=95&info_id=14356〕〔http://newyork-un.mae.lu/en/News/Luxembourg-and-Palau-establish-diplomatic-relations〕〔http://www.radionz.co.nz/international/pacific-news/186389/solomons-and-palau-set-up-diplomatic-relations〕〔http://www.english.globalarabnetwork.com/20090509657/Morocco-Politics/morocco-palau-establish-diplomatic-relations.html〕〔http://www.georgiatimes.info/en/news/66085.html〕〔http://www.urm.lt/default/en/list-of-countries-with-which-lithuania-has-established-diplomatic-relations〕〔http://ubpost.mongolnews.mn/?p=7986〕 raising the current number of diplomatic partners of Palau to over 50.
