Speaking at the ceremony, representatives of the newly appointed Ambassadors expressed their emotion and honor at receiving the appointment decisions directly from the General Secretary and President; demonstrating the recognition, trust, and attention of the Party and State leaders, and of the General Secretary and President personally, towards the diplomatic sector and foreign affairs activities.

The Ambassadors pledged to thoroughly understand and adhere to the policies and guidelines of the Party and State, and the directives of leaders at all levels; to contribute to the concretization of Vietnam's independent, self-reliant, diversified, and multilateral foreign policy; to promote cooperative relations with local partners; and to further strengthen Vietnam's position, protect national interests, and develop the country in the new era.

Sharing with the newly appointed Ambassadors the advantages and challenges, the General Secretary and President emphasized Vietnam's strengthened position on the international stage; Vietnam actively and responsibly participates in multilateral forums. In particular, Vietnam is expanding relations and cooperation in all fields, not only through state-level foreign relations but also through Party-to-people diplomacy; and not only in diplomacy but also in economics, culture, society, security, and defense…

The General Secretary and President also pointed out that after 80 years since the founding of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, the country has achieved many important accomplishments, but the need for development remains very great, many difficulties still exist, and the pace of development has not yet met the needs.

The goal of becoming a high-income industrialized country by 2045, the 100th anniversary of the nation's founding, is an extremely challenging task requiring the efforts of the entire nation.

In this context, the General Secretary and President affirmed that foreign affairs are crucial, ongoing, and comprehensive; the nhiệm vụ of the Ambassadors is to cover all aspects and fields of the country, such as diplomacy, economics, culture, national defense, security, and protecting national rights and interests.

Ambassadors should not only be bridges but also actual implementers of the Party and State's policies, leading the way on the diplomatic front.

The General Secretary and President urged the newly appointed Ambassadors to uphold the spirit of "self-reliance, self-confidence, self-sufficiency, self-strength, and national pride," to promote the spirit of modern diplomacy commensurate with the historical, cultural, political, and economic stature of the country, to enhance Vietnam's role and position in world politics, the global economy, and human civilization, and to create a solid foundation for the country to enter a new era, an era of national progress, for a peaceful, independent, democratic, prosperous, civilized, and happy Vietnam, steadily advancing towards socialism.

Affirming that the role of Ambassador is a great honor but also a very heavy burden, the General Secretary and President expressed confidence that with the attention of the Party and the State, and with their experience, the Ambassadors will continue to uphold the diplomatic tradition and successfully fulfill their assigned tasks.
