The message expresses sincere congratulations to the athletes of the fraternal country.
“The entire Azerbaijani people were pleased that you, having shown great skill, perseverance and will, raised the flag of Türkiye on a global scale and the Independence March sounded in your honor. We especially thank you for dedicating your victories to Azerbaijan. This once again confirmed that where there is no Azerbaijan, Türkiye always represents us and supports our just cause. This is another manifestation of the indestructible Azerbaijani-Turkish brotherhood. We are proud of you and wish you many more new victories in the future,” the congratulatory message says.
