The celebration of the 80th anniversary of the world people's victory over fascism is a global-scale event, not only commemorating a historic milestone but also reaffirming the fundamental values that have shaped the modern international order: peace, independence, sovereignty, equal cooperation, and shared development.
President Luong Cuong’s presence in the event reaffirms the country’s foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, diversification and multilateralization, and proactive, comprehensive, extensive and effective global integration, while making active and constructive contributions to peace, cooperation and development in the region and the world.
In addition, the Vietnamese State leader will engage in bilateral activities during his trip. He is expected to hold talks and meetings with key Chinese leaders to reinforce political trust and push forward win-win practical cooperation. He will also meet leaders from other countries and international organizations attending the commemoration.
