I am confident that the implementation of large-scale infrastructure projects that we plan will provide a solid foundation for the deepening of multifaceted cooperation.

I highly appreciate your friendship, confidence, support, as well as your personal attention to the interests of Belarus. I warmly recall our meetings and look forward to seeing you often in the hospitable land of Belarus.

Dear Ilham Heydar oglu, on this remarkable day, I wish you the best of health, long life and, as well as success in the creative works you are implementing in your high state position."
