During his visit to the Vietnamese Embassy in France on February 10, the ambassador also extended New Year wishes to all embassy officials and staff.
He noted that Viet Nam’s achievements serve as a strong source of encouragement for Laos, helping to strengthen confidence in each country’s development path as well as in the long-standing Lao–Vietnamese relationship.
Vietnamese Ambassador to France Trinh Duc Hai said the attention and support from the Lao side once again highlight the exceptional depth of Viet Nam–Laos relations, a bond forged and nurtured by generations of leaders and people of the two countries, marked by a rare blend of comradeship and brotherhood in international relations.
Sharing reflections from his own working experience, Ambassador Hai underlined the practical, close-knit and trust-based nature of bilateral cooperation, not only at the strategic level but also through frequent and concrete exchanges between agencies and people of both sides. He stressed that Viet Nam always remembers and deeply values the invaluable support and companionship of the Lao Party, State and people throughout its struggle for independence as well as its nation-building and development process.
Ambassador Hai congratulated Laos on the success of the 12th National Congress of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party, affirming that Viet Nam regards Laos’ achievements as a shared joy and expressing confidence that Laos will continue to record new accomplishments in national construction and development.
Both sides agreed that as Viet Nam and Laos enter a new stage of development, their successful Party congresses will create fresh opportunities and momentum to further deepen their friendship, special solidarity and comprehensive cooperation.
On the occasion of Viet Nam’s traditional Lunar New Year, Ambassador Hai extended wishes of health, peace and success to Ambassador Kalamoungkhoune Souphanouvong, officials and staff of both embassies and their families.
