VOV.VN - Officials of the External Affairs Commission of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party (LPRP) Central Committee visited the Vietnam Embassy in Vientiane on September 1 to extend congratulations on the 72nd National Day of Vietnam.
Sounthone Sayachac, who chairs the commission praised the tremendous achievements the Vietnamese people have recorded over the last 72 years under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam.
She highlighted those attainments as a great encouragement for the Lao people during their national development and protection while expressing her delight at the consistent support that the two Parties, States and peoples have given to each other over the past years.
She also hailed the assistance the Vietnamese Party, State and people have given to their Lao counterparts.
