The message of congratulations reads, in particular:
“The great victory of the glorious representatives of our peoples, who bore on their shoulders the trials of the fight against Nazism and ensured the freedom and independence of the Motherland, will remain in the memory of all subsequent generations.
I am confident that the fraternal friendship which has passed through the harsh trials of the Great Patriotic War will act as a solid foundation on which our countries can steadily develop multifaceted allied cooperation and a strategic partnership.”
