Dear Mr. Governor-General,
On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I extend to you and the people of your country my most sincere congratulations on the occasion of the public holiday – Australia Day.
Today Azerbaijan-Australia relations entered a new development stage. Intensifying political ties between our countries opened good opportunities for the expansion of cooperation in economic and humanitarian spheres. I do hope that we will continue our mutual efforts towards developing friendship and cooperation between Azerbaijan and Australia.
On this joyous day, I send you my best wishes, and wish the friendly people of Australia lasting welfare and prosperity.
Sincerely,
Ilham Aliyev
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
