Dear Mr President,

I have been deeply saddened by the news that your fellow countrymen were killed in a passenger plane crash in Colombia.

On behalf of the people of Azerbaijan and on my own behalf, I extend my deep condolences to you, families and the loved ones of those who died, and the whole people of Brazil, and wish the injured swiftest recovery.

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
