The message reads, in part:
“Over the years, the newspaper has come a long way, evolving from a news bulletin into one of the most popular national publications. Today, it is rightfully acclaimed by millions of readers as a reliable source on news politics, the economy, science, education, culture and sport.
I believe that the newspaper’s success is mainly due to the well-coordinated and highly professional work of its staff, as well as their respectful and caring attitude towards the rich creative legacy of their dedicated predecessors who served their cause with devotion, created the newspaper’s history, traditions, and its unique and recognisable style.
I am confident that you will continue to uphold the principles of journalistic ethics, delight readers with new projects and innovative ideas, and help enhance the prestige of national media outlets.”
