Dear Mr President,

I cordially congratulate you and the friendly people of Slovenia on my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of your country’s national holiday – the Statehood Day.

The current level of the Azerbaijan-Slovenia relations based on mutual respect and beneficial cooperation is gratifying. I am confident that our ties that serve the interests of our countries will be further expanded through our joint efforts.

I wish to stress that the people of Azerbaijan are in solidarity with the friendly people of Slovenia as the world fights COVID-19.

On this remarkable day, I wish strong health and success to you, and everlasting prosperity to your country.

Sincerely,

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
