His Excellency Mr Ilham Aliyev, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan

Excellency,

It gives me immense pleasure to convey warmest felicitations on Your Excellency’s re-election as the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

Your re-election to the highest office is not just a vote of confidence by the people of Azerbaijan, but also a mandate for the continued progress and development of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

Pakistan and Azerbaijan are not just strategic partners, but brothers linked by age old bonds of kinship and culture. Your Excellency’s visit to Pakistan in March last year added impetus to the existing ties of friendship and goodwill between our two countries.

I look forward to working closely with Your Excellency to further strengthen bilateral relations to the mutual benefit of the people of Pakistan and Azerbaijan.

I avail this opportunity to convey my best wishes for your good health and happiness, and for the continued progress and prosperity for the people of Azerbaijan.

Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.

Sincerely,

Mamnoon Hussain

President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan
