“On May 9, our countries remember with immense gratitude the courage, perseverance and dedication of our fathers and grandfathers, who valiantly fought shoulder to shoulder on the battlefield against a cruel enemy and worked in the rear, bringing victory over Nazism closer.
I am convinced that the glorious traditions of friendship and mutual assistance, forged in those difficult years, will continue to serve as a reliable basis for the development of strategic partnership relations between Russia and Turkmenistan.
I ask you to convey to the veterans of the Great Patriotic War living in your country words of gratitude and heartfelt congratulations, to wish them good health, prosperity and long life,” Vladimir Putin’s message says.
