I want to extend my sincere congratulations to you and the people of Azerbaijan on the 30th anniversary of the International Caspian Oil and Gas Exhibition. This milestone is a testament to Azerbaijan's leadership in the region's energy sector and commitment to global energy security.
Over the past 30 years, our two nations, both blessed with energy abundance, have enjoyed a tremendously productive partnership in the hydrocarbon sector. We share the view that natural gas will play an essential role in meeting rising global energy demands in the coming decades, and we support the right of every nation to leverage its resources for its own prosperity.
The United States values its partnership with Azerbaijan and appreciates the regional energy stability that makes it possible. I look forward to our continued collaboration in this important sector. Together, we can work toward a future of greater energy independence, sustainability, and economic growth. Once again, congratulations on this momentous occasion," Trump's letter reads.
