From the Chairman of the Memphis City Council of Tennessee, USA, Myron Lowery

Dear Mr. President,

I congratulate you on your reelection as President of the Republic of Azerbaijan. In this election, the citizens of Azerbaijan have once again demonstrated their faith and commitment to your leadership. The results of the presidential election, which is an important part of the democratic process, confirm the support of the people for your domestic and external policies. I am confident that these policies would further strengthen the strategic partnership ties between the USA and Azerbaijan, which are based on mutual interests.

I take this opportunity to thank you for the hospitality I enjoyed during my visit and the visit of other officials from the United States to Azerbaijan in June of this year. The development of a new independent Azerbaijan has made a very pleasant impression on us. We are confident that under your leadership Azerbaijan will develop further in the coming years.

Our countries are united by shared values in many matters such as ethnic diversity and tolerance. These values have deep roots in Azerbaijan society.

Mr. President, as a friend of Azerbaijan I wish you and your people every success in your efforts to develop the country and look forward to visiting Azerbaijan again in the near future.

Sincerely,

Myron Lowery
Chairman of the Memphis City Council of Tennessee, USA
