General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Viet Nam To Lam will pay a working visit to the US, where he will attend the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace for Gaza from February 18 to 20.

As one of the first countries to recognise the State of Palestine, Viet Nam welcomes all efforts to bring lasting peace to the Gaza Strip for the benefit of the Palestinian people, on the basis of international law and the United Nations Charter.

A Vietnamese delegation led by Deputy Prime Minister Bui Thanh Son attended a signing ceremony for the founding charter of the Board of Peace aimed at ending the conflict in the Gaza Strip on January 22, on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland, at the invitation of US President Donald Trump.
