Baku / 03.07.18 / Turan: Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev sent a congratulatory message to Donald Trump on the occasion of the US national holiday - Independence Day.
Azerbaijan and the US unite friendly and partnership relations, the countries closely and effectively cooperate in countering regional threats and terrorism, security issues, as well as in the economic sphere, the message says.
