At the event, Ambassador Nguyen Phuong Tra, Charge d'affaires a.i. of Vietnam to the U.N., briefed the delegation on Vietnam’s participation in and contributions to the U.N. since its membership began in 1977.

Vietnam always strives to make maximum contributions within its capabilities to the common work of the U.N. regarding all three pillars of sustainable development, human rights protection and promotion, and maintenance of international peace and security, she affirmed.

Tra said as a responsible member of the UN, the Vice Chair of the 77th U.N. General Assembly, and a member of the U.N. Human Rights Council for the 2023-2025 tenure and many other important U.N. agencies, Vietnam will continue to work with other countries to deploy the UN’s major initiatives and priorities in the coming time.

The sides discussed a series of matters, including challenges facing the U.N. in the current period, and Vietnam's foreign policy in relations with big countries at the U.N. and its efforts in ensuring and promoting human rights as well as in Vietnam's engagement in U.N. peacekeeping activities, among others.
