Le Hoai Trung, head of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee’s Commission for External Relations, was speaking to media workers in Hanoi on August 15 ahead of Party General Secretary and President To Lam’s coming state visit to China.
Trung stressed that this will be To Lam’s first visit to China in his capacity as Party General Secretary and President of Vietnam at the invitation of Chinese Party General Secretary and President Xi Jinping. The August 18-20 visit, he said, demonstrates Vietnam’s consistent foreign policy of prioritizing developing relations with China through top-level strategic dialogue.
The official recalled reciprocal visit exchanges between the two countries’ top leaders, including a China visit in October 2022 by the then Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, and especially the Vietnam visit in December 2023 by Chinese Party General Secretary and President Xi Jinping, during which the two sides agreed to build up political trust, further increase cooperation, including in defense-security, and better control and resolve disagreements.
During To Lam’s coming visit, Trung said, the top leaders of Vietnam and China will review the relationship between the two Parties and two countries, especially the results recorded in implementing high-level agreements between their elite leaders, and outline major orientations for future development and cooperation.
Through the visit, he said, Vietnam is seeking to discuss issues of mutual concern and promote cooperation with China as a neighbouring, socialist and large country, thereby creating a favourable environment and taking advantage of external resources for the successful implementation of socio-economic development and foreign affairs goals.
