Hörmətli Vladimir Vladimiroviç,

Rusiya Federasiyasının Türkiyə Respublikasındakı fövqəladə və səlahiyyətli səfiri Andrey Gennadyeviç Karlovun faciəli ölümü barədə xəbər məni dərindən sarsıtdı.

Biz bu qanlı terror cinayətini qətiyyətlə və qeyd-şərtsiz pisləyirik. Sizə, həlak olmuş səfirin ailəsinə, doğmalarına və yaxınlarına dərin hüznlə başsağlığı verirəm.
