Dear Mr. President,

On behalf of the people of Azerbaijan and on my own behalf I extend to you my sincere congratulations on the occasion of the national holiday of your country – Republic Day.

Today Azerbaijan-Italy relations are on the path of dynamic development. Ever-growing political, economic and cultural ties contribute to the strengthening of friendly and cooperative relations between our countries and nations.

I believe that we will further spare no efforts for strengthening our intergovernmental relations, deepening partnership in bilateral and multilateral formats and expanding traditionally friendly ties between our countries.

On this joyful day, I wish you robust health, success in your activities and the friendly people of Italy everlasting peace and prosperity.

Sincerely,

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
