Vietnamese Ambassador to China Pham Thanh Binh says Zhao’s visit underscores the two countries’ mutual respect and strong political will to deepen their comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership. |
The top Chinese legislator’s official visit and co-chairmanship of the first meeting of the cooperation committee between the Vietnamese N.A. and the Chinese NPC will not only strengthen legislative cooperation but also reinforce achievements across diplomatic channels of the Party, State, Government, parliament, and people. This provides a solid political foundation for stronger, more stable, and effective collaboration in all aspects, including politics–diplomacy, defense–security, trade, investment, science–technology, and people-to-people exchanges.
Meanwhile, Chinese Ambassador to Vietnam He Wei said the trip is an opportunity for the Chinese Party and Government to extend their warm congratulations to their Vietnamese counterparts on the 80th National Day, reflecting China’s respect for the bilateral ties and the building of a Vietnam–China community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.
The visit also demonstrates China’s strong support and close friendship with Vietnam, affirming mutual support and shared commitment to the path of socialism, implementing common perceptions between senior leaders of the two Parties and nations, and advancing the building of the Vietnam–China community.
