Prime Minister Vladimir Putin forwarded a greeting telegram to George Bush, the 43rd US President, on his birthday

The message says, in part:

"We have worked much together for several years to build up Russian-US partnership. Despite differences that might have persisted between our countries, I have always valued your frankness and straightforwardness. I enjoy recollections of your hospitality at the ranch in Crawford and your family estate in Kennebunkport. I look forward to many further opportunities to meet each other."
