The ambassador highlighted that the organization could have a significant part in bridging the substantial gap between developed and developing countries while appreciating the OECD’s technical assistance to Vietnam to deliver on its set target of becoming a high-income nation by 2045.

Schaal, for his part, extended his condolences over the passing of late General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee Nguyen Phu Trong as well as the losses and difficulties that the Vietnamese people have suffered from typhoon Yagi.
