On behalf of the people of Ukraine and on my own behalf, I congratulate you on the occasion of the national holiday of Azerbaijan, the Independence Day.

I appreciate our personal constructive dialogue, which contributes to strengthening of Ukrainian-Azerbaijani partnership across all domains of mutual interest. Therefore, I hope that you will participate in the first Peace Summit, scheduled to be held in Switzerland this June, and that Azerbaijan will actively join Ukraine’s Peace Formula.
Your Excellency, I wish you robust health, new achievements in your state activities, and peace and prosperity to the friendly people of Azerbaijan," reads the letter.
