BAKU, March 25 (RIA Novosti, Gerai Dadashev) - Azerbaijan's president congratulated Saturday Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko with the presidential election victory, a source in the Azerbaijan's presidential staff said.

Aliyev also wished Lukashenko "good health, happiness and success in state activities."

Alexander Lukashenko, who Washington has dubbed "Europe's last dictator", was reelected to his third presidential term last Sunday with 83% of the vote.
