"Your Majesty,
My Dear Brother,
On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I
extend my most sincere congratulations and best wishes to you and,
through you, to all your people on the occasion of September 23 –
the Proclamation of the Kingdom.
We are delighted by the upward trajectory and dynamic
development of Azerbaijan–Saudi Arabia intergovernmental relations
and cooperation, which are built on shared moral values, religious
and cultural roots, traditional friendship, and brotherhood.
We attach great importance to the comprehensive development of
our relations based on mutual trust and support. Today, our
cooperation across a number of fields serves the interests of our
countries and the well-being of our peoples, bringing them even
closer together. Our partnership with ACWA Power, your country’s
leading company in the priority areas of energy, including
alternative and renewable energy, is expanding year by year and
gaining new substance.
I would particularly like to emphasize our fruitful cooperation
and mutual support within international organizations, especially
the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. Of course, active
political dialogue at the highest level has created a favorable
foundation for all of this.
I am confident that the brotherly relations and interaction
between our peoples will further deepen in the coming years through
our joint efforts for the prosperity of our countries, and that our
partnership will be enriched with new achievements.
On this festive day, I wish you robust health, long life, and
success in your high office, and the brotherly people of Saudi
Arabia lasting peace and prosperity," the letter reads.
