NA Chairman Hung expressed his joy at important results in the relations of the two countries after 20 years of establishing diplomatic ties, and praised the two Senators’ contributions to promoting ties between the two countries in recent years.
Vietnam wishes to enhance cooperation with the US in law making to serve its law reform process because the latter is experienced in the field, Hung said.

President Pro Tempore of the Senate Patrick Leahy spoke highly of Vietnam’s socio-economic development achievements in the region and the world, saying that he believes in the country’s bright future.
He stated that the US Congress is keen to step up comprehensive cooperation with Vietnam, thus fostering mutual understanding and relationship between the two peoples.
Hung and Leahy emphasised the importance of bilateral cooperation between the two countries in maintaining peace, stability, cooperation and prosperity in the region and the world.
For his part, Senator John McCain expressed his hope that Vietnam and the US as well as other countries involving in negotiations on the Trans-pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement would reach a consensus on the deal soon.
He expressed his concern about recent situations in the East Sea, saying that all disputes should be settled by peaceful measures, on the basis of respect for international law.

Deputy Prime Minister Mai Van Chinh has highlighted the upcoming exhibition on national achievements on the occasion of the country's 80th National Day as an unprecedented, large-scale event with diverse content, urging all stakeholders to demonstrate the highest sense of responsibility to make it commensurate with 80 years of national construction and defence.
Chien reaffirmed Vietnam’s stance on the settlement of disputes through peaceful measures in accordance with international law, particularly the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), as well as full implementation of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the East Sea (DOC) and early finalisation of a substantive, effective Code of Conduct in the East Sea (COC).

The signing of the agreement is part of the efforts to concretise the joint statement issued during the visit to Cuba by General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee To Lam in September last year.
Vietnamese Party General Secretary To Lam's spouse, Ngo Phuong Ly, expressed her hope that the RoK will share its experience and work with Vietnam to foster closer collaboration in cultural industry.
Eighty years since the historic autumn of 1945, the Vietnamese nation has overcome countless challenges to gain its independence and gradually develop thanks to the revolutionary path that is both resolute and flexible under the leadership of the Party.
Party General Secretary To Lam said since Vietnam and the RoK established their diplomatic ties in 1992 and upgraded their ties to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2022, they have enjoyed expanded collaboration, delivering tangible benefits to their peoples and businesses.
The state visit to the RoK by Vietnamese Party General Secretary To Lam and his spouse was a great success, marking a significant milestone and opening a new chapter in the Vietnam–RoK Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
In any circumstances, the Lao People’s Army will always stand shoulder to shoulder with its Vietnamese counterpart to safeguard both nations and nurture their great friendship, special solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation.
State President Luong Cuong sent a congratulatory message to President of the Republic of Ecuador Daniel Noboa on the occasion of the 216th National Day of the South American country (August 10).
Vietnam and the RoK should maintain regular exchanges at all levels, especially high level, across the Party, State, Government, National Assembly, and people-to-people channels; expand cooperation in diplomacy, national defence-security, economy, and sci-tech; and effectively realise existing cooperation mechanisms and agreements, said Party leader To Lam.
Party General Secretary Lam called on the RoK to help enhance the capacity of Vietnamese firms to integrate more deeply into the global supply chains of Korean companies, and to encourage Korean businesses to expand investment in Vietnam, particularly in infrastructure development, high-tech electronics manufacturing, semiconductors, artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and smart cities.
Vietnamese brides in the Republic of Korea urged educational support, particularly access to Vietnamese language classes for their children, age-appropriate curricula, and resources for single mothers while meeting with Ngo Phuong Ly, spouse of Party General Secretary To Lam.
President of the Republic of Korea (RoK) Lee Jae Myung emphasised that the first visit to the RoK by General Secretary Lam in his capacity as the top leader of Vietnam holds special significance as it creates strong momentum for enhancing mutual understanding, strengthening political trust, and further promoting the RoK – Vietnam Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in the next phase.

Regarding the East Sea issue, Vietnam reaffirmed its consistent stance of solving all disputes through peaceful means, in accordance with international law, including the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
