Director General of Albanian Telegraphic Agency Armela Krasniqi

On behalf of the Albanian Telegraphic Agency I would like to congratulate on 100th anniversary of the establishment of Azerbaijani news agency, AZERTAC. ATA and AZERTAC enjoy an excellent cooperation for many years now. AZERTAC remains a leading agency in the region and I believe that under the stewardship of its president, Aslan Aslanov, it will continue to play such pivotal role in the future. I wish once again a happy 100th anniversary of AZERTAC!
