Dear Mr. President,
On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I extend my heartfelt congratulation and best wishes to you and through you, your entire people on the occasion of the national day of the State of Palestine.
Establishment of Azerbaijan’s diplomatic mission in Palestine last year was a positive step to develop bilateral relations. Construction of a school by our side in Palestine is also on the agenda.
We hope for the soonest de-escalation of tension in Gaza. Azerbaijan has always demonstrated solidarity with respect to the Palestine issue and advocated for the two-state solution of a problem based on the UN’s respective resolutions and decisions. Our country will continue to provide support to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East.
I believe that friendly relations and cooperation based on good traditions between our countries will continue to successfully develop.
On this festive day, I wish you the best of health, happiness, success in your endeavors, and the brotherly people of Palestine peace and prosperity.
Respectfully,
Ilham Aliyev
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
Baku, 13 November 2023
