Excellency,

On this auspicious occasion of Republic Day of Azerbaijan, it gives me immense pleasure to convey to you, on behalf of the people and the Government of Pakistan, our warm felicitations.

Our shared interests and perceptions and joint stakes in the peace and stability of our regions are manifested in our strong and mutual support to each other`s political causes. I sincerely hope that our strategic partnership will continue to grow in all walks of life and to the mutual benefits of the two brotherly people.

I am sure that our bilateral cooperation will further broaden in all areas as agreed during my visit to your great country in March 2015.

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

Mamnoon Hussain

President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan
