Sr. Col. Minh emphasized that amidst the rapidly evolving and increasingly complex regional and global situation, foreign affairs in general and defense diplomacy in particular require officials to continuously improve their professional expertise, research, analysis, forecasting, and strategic advisory capabilities in order to safeguard national interests. At the same time, the growing trend of peace, cooperation, and international integration calls for the development of a professional and modern foreign affairs workforce capable of meeting the requirements in the new situation.
