The U.N. official spoke highly of Vietnam's contributions to the U.N. activities, and proposed the Southeast Asian nation continue supporting the U.N. Development System (UNDS) reform.
Vietnam is a country that always upholds multilateralism and multilateral cooperation, and also a model in cooperation with the U.N., she said, affirming that she will continue to actively participate in the process to develop policies and plans for Vietnam’s socio-economic development in the coming time.
For his part, Ambassador Giang informed her of the priorities that Vietnam will promote at the U.N. in the coming time, saying that the country will focus on issues related to education, disease preparedness, climate change adaptation, and energy transition.
The diplomat suggested the U.N. continue to support Vietnam in technology transfer and policy recommendations, and share experience and knowledge with the country to help it promote socio-economic development.
Vietnam and the U.N. both share the same goals, so they should strengthen cooperation in areas of mutual interest, he said.
