Party General Secretary and State President To Lam was invited to attend the event by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President of Namibia Nangolo Mbumba.

“We will relentlessly strive to ensure that the people fully enjoy development achievements and future generations are well-prepared for their paths ahead,” he stated.

In that spirit, the top leader of Vietnam urged the Summit to focus its deliberation on finding transformative solutions to the challenges facing the globe, adding that transformation must begin with advances in science, technology and innovation.

He said the United Nations must take the lead in establishing legal frameworks for information sharing and assisting countries in safely and securely developing groundbreaking technologies such as digital technology, artificial intelligence and automation. The latest achievements in science and technology should be accessible for all countries in a fair, meaningful and inclusive manner.

As the world’s sustainable development is closely tied to green transformation, especially green technology, green energy and green finance, Party General Secretary and State President To Lam, therefore, proposed the establishment of a global green technology platform where ASEAN and other regional organizations can share their experience and promote green technology development.

He also stressed the need for the U.N. and multilateral financial institutions to be strengthened to effectively address current and future challenges, and mobilize critical resources to support developing countries.

“We strongly believe that with substantive cooperation and concrete actions, we can achieve the Summit’s goals and lay a solid foundation for future generations,” said the leader.
