BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 28. President of the
Slovak Republic Peter Pellegrini has sent a congratulatory letter
to President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, Trend reports.


"Dear Mr. President,


Please accept my heartfelt congratulations on the occasion of
the national holiday of your country – Independence Day.


This significant day commemorates the historic establishment of
the first democratic republic in the Muslim world and represents
for the Azerbaijani people a symbol of freedom, sovereignty, and
progress.


The Slovak Republic highly values the traditionally good and
friendly bilateral relations with the Republic of Azerbaijan, which
were significantly strengthened by the first official visit of Your
Excellency to Slovakia in December last year.


I am very much looking forward to my official visit to your
beautiful country, which will take place very soon. I am convinced
that this mutual exchange of visits at the highest level will
further deepen our relations and open new opportunities for
cooperation in the fields of energy, transport, investments, and
cultural exchange.


Mr. President, please accept my sincerest wishes for strong
health, personal well-being, and every success in fulfilling all
the objectives of your mandate. At the same time, I wish you, as
well as all the people of Azerbaijan, success, stability, and
prosperity.


Please accept, Your Excellency, the assurances of my highest
consideration," the letter reads.
