During his three days in Kuala Lumpur, PM Chinh had a busy schedule with nearly 50 multilateral and bilateral activities, including attending ASEAN meetings and events, ASEAN summits with partners, and holding bilateral meetings with almost all ASEAN leaders as well as leaders of partner countries and international organisations participating in the summits.
His attendance at and practical contributions to the 47th ASEAN Summit and related summits reaffirmed the strategic importance of ASEAN in Viet Nam’s foreign policy. It also conveyed a strong message of Viet Nam’s proactive, active, and responsible participation in building a united, resilient, inclusive, and sustainable ASEAN Community. At the same time, it demonstrated Viet Nam’s efforts to help maintain and strengthen ASEAN’s central role and responsible voice for peace, stability, and development in the region and the world.
In particular, through bilateral meetings between PM Chinh and leaders of various countries and organisations, both sides reached new directions for cooperation that meet the requirements of both parties in the new phase of development and in emerging fields.
The outcomes of the PM’s trip continue to effectively implement the foreign policy set forth by the 13th National Party Congress, Conclusion No. 59-KL/TW of the Politburo on orientations for Viet Nam’s participation in ASEAN until 2030, Directive No. 25-CT/TW of the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat on enhancing multilateral diplomacy until 2030, and Resolution No. 59-NQ/TW of the Politburo on international integration in the new context.
