Madam Governor-General,
On behalf of the people of Azerbaijan and on my own behalf, I would like to extend to you and the people of your country my most sincere congratulations on the occasion of the national holiday – the Day of Australia.
The expansion of Azerbaijani-Australian relations in recent years is very encouraging. I do hope that we will continue our joint efforts towards the development of our cooperation in bilateral and multilateral formats.
On this auspicious day I send you my best wishes and wish the friendly people of Australia permanent welfare and prosperity.
Sincerely,
Ilham Aliyev
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
