This is Mr. Lam’s first visit to the UN and the US since Vietnam’s 14th National Party Congress and elections for the 16th National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2026-2031 term.
His participation in the UN General Assembly High-Level Week reaffirms the importance Vietnam’s Party and State attach to multilateralism and the UN’s central role. It also reflects Vietnam’s consistent foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, peace, friendship, cooperation, development, and diversification and multilateralization of external relations.
Party leader and President Lam’s working visit to the US is expected to help implement the common understandings reached by the two countries’ senior leaders and further advance the Vietnam-US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in a stable, substantive, effective, and sustainable manner.
