The workshop took place as many countries are adjusting their energy strategies to address energy security concerns, climate change, and rising electricity demand.
During the event, Ambassador Nguyen Thi Minh Nguyet delivered a presentation entitled “Vietnam’s Nuclear Energy Development: A Strategic Vision for Energy Security and International Cooperation.”
