"Dear Mr. President,
On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I
sincerely congratulate you and, through you, the friendly people of
Ukraine on the significant occasion of the 35th anniversary of
Ukraine’s independence and convey my best wishes.
The current level of Azerbaijan–Ukraine friendly relations,
which have rich traditions, is a source of satisfaction. Our
political dialogue, high-level reciprocal visits, and cooperation
in the economic and humanitarian fields are important aspects of
our strategic partnership. I would particularly like to note our
effective cooperation in the energy sector, which has continued for
many years.
I highly appreciate the results of your working visit to
Azerbaijan in April this year and our meeting. Undoubtedly, our
regular meetings and contacts, as well as our mutual support on
issues concerning the territorial integrity and sovereignty of our
countries, are among the main factors contributing to the
strengthening of interstate relations.
The existence of an active dialogue at the highest level creates
a favorable basis for deepening our cooperation in various fields,
particularly in trade and the economy, humanitarian affairs,
agriculture, investment, and other areas. We will continue to
provide humanitarian support to the friendly people of Ukraine in
the future as well.
I am confident that we will continue to make joint efforts to
strengthen Azerbaijan–Ukraine friendly relations for the benefit of
our peoples.
On this festive day, I wish you robust health and happiness, and
peace, tranquility, and prosperity to the friendly people of
Ukraine," the letter reads.
