Cultural diplomacy in the era of the Vietnamese nation’s rise
Alongside economic diplomacy and political diplomacy, cultural diplomacy forms one of the three pillars of Viet Nam’s comprehensive, modern diplomacy. It is regarded as a crucial component of foreign policy, implemented extensively at multiple levels and across different regions of the country.
In recent years, cultural diplomacy has recorded remarkable successes, contributing significantly to national development while fostering greater understanding of Viet Nam among political circles and peoples worldwide.
Through cultural diplomacy, international communication and social media outreach have been strengthened, underlining the message of a peaceful, friendly, safe and liveable Viet Nam, thereby enhancing global visibility and national brand recognition.
