During the meetings, Nghia expressed his thanks for the solidarity, friendship and support of Latin American people, especially those of Argentina and Uruguay, in the past struggle for liberation and national reunification, as well as national building and safeguarding at present.
He highlighted achievements Vietnam has obtained after nearly 40 years of implementing the doi moi (renewal), affirming that the country continues to implement its foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, peace, cooperation and development, diversification and multilateralisation of international relations, and attaches importance to developing traditional friendly and cooperative relations with neighbouring countries, major countries and traditional countries, including Latin American nations.
Leaders of political parties and organisations from Argentina and Uruguay congratulated Vietnam on the success that the country has reaped in the renewal process, as well as in the implementation of the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress, especially in socio-economic development.
