Please accept my sincerest congratulations to you and to the Government and people of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan as you celebrate Pakistan Day.
Our countries share warm and long-standing relations, underpinned by cooperation in various areas. As we mark the 40th anniversary of our diplomatic relations this year, I look forward to further enhancing these important ties, both bilaterally and internationally, in the years to come.
May Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala bless Your Excellency with good health and happiness and grant the people of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan with continued peace, progress and prosperity.
