Dear First Vice-President,
Please allow me to extend, both personally and on behalf of the United States of America, heartfelt best wishes on your birthday. Your leadership in developing our countries’ strong partnership in education, culture, sport, and economic diversification is deeply appreciated. I am particularly grateful for your ongoing efforts in support of a new, modern U.S. embassy building that reflects the full potential of our bilateral relationship and adds to the architectural beauty of Baku. I look forward to continuing our close cooperation on security, energy projects and foreign investment, as well as cultural and educational exchanges that enrich both our peoples.
May you have a long life, good health, many successes, and the joy of being surrounded by a loving family and friends.
With warmest best wishes,
Earle D. Litzenberger
Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the Republic of Azerbaijan
