Excellency,

I would like to extend my most sincere congratulations on your re-election as President of the Republic of Azerbaijan and wish you all success in this important responsibility.

I have no doubt that this new term will provide further opportunities for enhancing Azerbaijan`s global engagement in support of peace, development and human rights, including through the current membership of the Security Council.

The United Nations continues to play a crucial role in the collective efforts to build a better world for all and your country`s commitment is critical in realizing this shared goal. I greatly appreciate the support of Azerbaijan for the United Nations in Geneva, which is a central hub for our work, and I look forward to advancing these efforts.

Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.

Kassym-Jomart Tokayev

Director General

United Nations Office at Geneva
