The Marshall Islands and the FSM are both associated states with the Compact of Free Association.[1] The United States provides both with foreign aid and other programs[1] Similarly, Marshall Islands passport holders may enter Micronesia without a visa and Micronesian passport holders may enter the Marshall Islands without a visa.[2] Both countries are staunch supporters of Israel in the United Nations,[3] as is the U.S. They are also the staunchest supporters of the United States, along with Palau, another associated state of the U.S.
