N.A. Chairman Tran Thanh Man (third from left) is leading a Vietnamese delegation to the 11th plenary session of the International Parliament for Tolerance and Peace.

The IPTP operates under the Global Council for Tolerance and Peace (GCTP), an international organization established in 2017 by UAE diplomats and current GCTP President Ahmed Bin Mohamed Aljarwan. The organization aims at promoting a culture of peace and combating discrimination and extremism.

The 11th session drew the participation of nearly 200 parliamentary leaders, parliamentarians, representatives of regional and international parliamentary organizations, and invited partners. It is expected to adopt the Phnom Penh Declaration and the Peace Charter.

N.A. Chairman Man’s participation as a guest of the host nation demonstrates Vietnam's support for Cambodia, particularly during its IPTP chairmanship, thus contributing to consolidating and developing the traditional friendship and comprehensive cooperation between the two parliaments and the two nations.

During the session, the Vietnamese leader was set to deliver a keynote speech emphasizing Vietnam's consistent stance on respecting international law and promoting multilateralism, with particular focus on the U.N.’s central role in preventing war and conflict.
