Dear Mr. President,

On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I sincerely congratulate you and all your people on the occasion of your country’s national holiday - German Unity Day.

We attach special importance to the comprehensive development of the Azerbaijan-Germany relations. I am confident that we will continue to make joint efforts to strengthen and expand friendly relations between our countries, including our mutually beneficial cooperation in the political, economic and humanitarian domains.

I express my hope that we will maintain close cooperation with Germany within the framework of COP29, scheduled to take place in Baku in November.

On such a festive day, I wish you robust health, happiness, and everlasting peace and prosperity to the friendly people of Germany.

Sincerely,

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
