The Vietnamese leader lauded the important role of ambassadors who serve as bridges for friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and their respective countries. He committed his up most support for them to accomplish their duties.

Over the past years, Vietnam has stepped up comprehensive reform in a wide range of areas, resulting in socio-political stability, high economic growth and growing external relations, which are partly contributed by international friends, especially those in the region and those that have close relationship with Vietnam, he said.

He stated that Vietnam consistently follows the external policy of independence, self-reliance, peace, cooperation and development, multilateralisation and diversification of ties, being prepared to be a friend and trustworthy partner of countries globally.

On the occasion, he thanked the countries for providing support for Vietnam to fulfil its assigned tasks in the region and the world.

The host hoped that during their tenures, Vietnam will leave a good impression on ambassadors, thus making practical and effective contributions to bilateral ties.

He wished for the development of friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and the countries, for prosperity of each nation and for peace, friendship, cooperation and development in the region and the world.
