THE HONORABLE ILHAM ALIYEVPRESIDENT-ELECT OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJANBAKU, AZERBAIJAN
As Azerbaijan enters a new era with your leadership, it is my hope that your country will continue its development of a strong democracy, economic prosperity and a civil society.
As you know, regional stability in the South Caucasus and the Caspian, security and diversity of energy sources and export routes are important matters for your country, your neighbors and the rest of the world. In my recent speech to members of the U.S- Azerbaijan Chamber of Commerce, I expressed my pleasure that U.S.-Azerbaijan cooperation is growing and deepening in all directions. I consider Azerbaijan as an important friend of the United States, and I will continue to support efforts to promote and enhance the market reforms and further democratization.
Additionally, I look forward to further cooperation with the Milli Majlis to enhance cooperation between our two countries. By strengthening the relationship between our two legislative bodies I believe we can produce a positive impact in U.S.-Azerbaijan relations.
Thank you for you continued support of my efforts and I look forward to further cooperation with you and your colleagues.
Sincerely
Curt Weldon
Member of Congress
