Excellency,

I would like to convey my warmest congratulations to Your Excellency on your re-election as President of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

In the past years, the people of Azerbaijan, under your leadership, have obtained tremendous achievements in national development. Looking ahead to a new period, I strongly believe in your country`s greater successes building a prosperous nation with contribution to maintaining peace, cooperation and development in the region and the world.

With a view to strengthening bilateral traditional friendship, I took forwards to welcoming Your Excellency on an official visit to Vietnam at a convenient time in 2014. I am confident that the visit will stand as a milestone in elevating Vietnam – Azerbaijan relations to a higher level in our mutual interest.

May I avail myself of this opportunity to extend to you my best wishes for health, happiness and success.

Yours Sincerely,

Truong Tan Sang

President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam
