Speaking at the meeting, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Le Thi Thu Hang shared that for Vietnam, 2025 is a year full of pride with historical milestones and strategic breakthroughs. Successfully organizing the 80th anniversary of National Day and the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification not only honors Vietnam's glorious past but also showcases the image of a peaceful , dynamic, and vibrant Vietnam, ready to enter a new era of development.

Vietnam's top GDP growth rate in Southeast Asia, record-breaking trade turnover, and strong increase in foreign direct investment (FDI) reflect the vitality of the Vietnamese economy , as well as the confidence of foreign investors in Vietnam's potential and development prospects.

In addition to maintaining diplomatic relations with 194 countries, Vietnam has upgraded relations with 17 countries, bringing the total number of partners at the Comprehensive Partnership level or higher to 42. Vietnam's election as a member of the United Nations Human Rights Council for the 2026-2028 term with a high number of votes, and its successful organization of a series of major multilateral events, such as the signing ceremony of the UN Convention against Cybercrime, further affirm Vietnam as a reliable partner and a proactive and responsible member of the international community.

Deputy Minister Le Thi Thu Hang emphasized that the achievements Vietnam has made over the past year have always been supported, accompanied, and cooperated with international friends. Vietnam hopes to continue receiving the attention and valuable sentiments from diplomatic missions, international organizations, and foreign news agencies and press agencies based in Vietnam, helping to further spread information and images of a peaceful, friendly, and dynamically developing Vietnam.
