Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich, Please, accept my sincere congratulations and best wishes on the occasion of your state holiday-Russia Day.The ties of centuries-long friendship and good neighborhood that unite our peoples are the reliable basis of sustainable development of strategic partnership and multidimensional cooperation between Azerbaijan and Russia.
