Dear Olexandr Ivanovych!
On Your 70th birthday I’d like to express my most sincere feelings to defender of Ukrainian football, man of his word and good Friend.
I really like Your management style, analytic mind, logical thinking, consistency and diplomacy. It’s difficult to overestimate Your role in modern Ukrainian football.
I wish You, Your family and friends happiness and wellbeing! Let all Your ideas be a success.
Yours respectfully,
UEFA vice president
