The President message reads, in part:
“Our joint efforts over these last years have taken our bilateral cooperation, based on longstanding traditions of friendship, to a qualitatively new level. Russia and Tajikistan continue to build up their political dialogue, trade and economic ties, and to coordinate their efforts to counter new threats and challenges.
I believe that continued development of our cooperation on international and regional affairs, including within integration organisations, is in our peoples’ and countries’ interests and will contribute to peace and security in Central Asia.”
