Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich,

We were deeply shocked by the news of a horrific terrorist attack that happened in the Crocus City Hall concert venue.

I strongly condemn this act of terrorism, and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan and my behalf, I extend my condolences to you, the people of Russia, and the families of the victims, and wish a speedy recovery to the injured.

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
