"Dear Mr. President,

I cordially congratulate you on the New Year and the bright Christmas holiday. I emphasize with pleasure that lately, cooperation between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Serbia has been developing along an upward trajectory. Agreements reached during our meetings in Belgrade and Sochi opened up new perspectives for bilateral cooperation in numerous directions. I hope that in the coming year we will continue to work together constructively for the benefit of the fraternal peoples of our countries. I expect your arrival in Moscow to mark the 75th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. I wish you, your family and loved ones good health and success, and to the brotherly Serbian people - peace and prosperity.

Očekujem Vaš dolazak u Moskvu na obeležavanje 75-godišnjice Pobede u Velikom otadžbinskom ratu.
