I express my deep gratitude to the heads of foreign states, governments and parliaments, political and public figures, representatives of the business community, heads of international organizations, residents of mahallas and labor collectives of our country, all compatriots who sent sincere congratulations and best wishes on the occasion of my birthday.

First of all, I perceive these congratulations and wishes addressed to me as the embodiment of high respect for the people and state of Uzbekistan, confidence in the large-scale reforms in our country, and hope for the country’s bright future.

Taking this opportunity, I once again, with all my heart, express my boundless filial love and respect to our hardworking, generous, and noble people.

With the dedicated work, enormous creative potential, and unity of our people, I am confident that we will achieve the high goals we have set for ourselves to build a New Uzbekistan.

With deep respect,

Shavkat Mirziyoyev,

President of the Republic of Uzbekistan
