President Ph\u00fac shared his delight over Laos\u2019 domestic and foreign affairs achievements in recent times, expressing his belief that\u00a0Laos would successfully implement the resolution of the 11th National Congress of the Lao People\u2019s Revolutionary Party and the five-year socio-economic development plan for the\u00a02021-25 period.<\/p>\n

General Secretary and President of Laos Thongloun Sisoulith expressed his pleasure to lead a high-level delegation of the Lao Party and State to pay an official friendly visit to Vi\u1ec7t Nam, warmly congratulated the successes of the 13th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vi\u1ec7t Nam earlier this year and the election of deputies to the 15th National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2021-26 term.<\/p>\n

The Lao leader was pleased to learn of the achievements that the Vietnamese people had made with regards to nation building and development and international integration, considering it a \u201cmutual victory\u201d and a great source of encouragement for the revolutionary cause in Laos.<\/p>\n

The two leaders highly appreciated each country\u2019s efforts as well as bilateral cooperation and mutual support in COVID-19 response, affirmed that under any circumstances, Vi\u1ec7t Nam and Laos would always promote the long-standing tradition of sharing.<\/p>\n

The two countries\u2019 presidents vowed to share and help each other overcome the pandemic, pursue socio-economic recovery and continue with sustainable development.<\/p>\n

Lao General Secretary and President Thongloun Sisoulith emphasised that the great material and spiritual support from the Party, State and people of Vi\u1ec7t Nam had made an important contribution to Laos’ success in disease control.<\/p>\n

The Vietnamese President, for his part, expressed gratitude to the Lao Party, State and people, who despite many difficulties had pledged US$300,000 to support Vi\u1ec7t Nam in pandemic efforts, another testament to the camaraderie and special friendship between the two countries.<\/p>\n

The two sides were pleased to see that, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vi\u1ec7t Nam-Laos special relations had continued to flourish, with political relations being continuously consolidated and the two sides making efforts to maintain delegation exchanges and high-level contacts in various forms, especially after the two countries successfully held their respective Party Congress and choosing new leadership.<\/p>\n

The two countries are committed to working closely together to push bilateral ties to new heights and effectively implement the cooperation agreements signed during the trip and the orientations set out by two Party leaders during the\u00a0talks on Monday.<\/p>\n

Accordingly, the two sides would continue to carry out the agenda of the 43rd meeting of the inter-governmental committee held in December last year, increase cooperation in security-defence, trade and commerce, investment, agriculture, education and training, as well as cooperation between localities of the two countries.<\/p>\n

On this occasion, President Ph\u00fac and General Secretary and President Thongloun Sisoulith discussed cooperation between the two countries at multilateral forums \u2013 especially ASEAN, the Mekong sub-regional mechanisms, and collaboration between the three countries Vi\u1ec7t Nam, Laos and Cambodia.<\/p>\n

President Ph\u00fac congratulated Laos on being elected to the position of Vice President of the 76th United Nations General Assembly, demonstrating the rising prestige and position of Laos in the international arena.<\/p>\n
