The message of congratulations reads, in particular:
“The vivid memory of the feats accomplished during the difficult years of the war by those in the front lines and those in the rear in the name of the freedom and happiness of future generations will remain in our hearts forever.
The peoples of Russia and Azerbaijan faced the Nazi threat and honourably bore their share of hardships. I am confident that the fraternity that has developed during the war years will act as a reliable basis for the further development of friendly relations between our countries.”
