The delegation has so far paid a courtesy call to Sen. Lieut. Gen. Miao Hua, Chairman of the Chinese Central Military Commission’s Department of Political Work and held talks with Vice Admiral Qin Shengxiang. The Vietnamese officials also visited the Dalian Maritime University.

At these meetings, both sides acknowledged that the cooperation and friendship between the Vietnamese and Chinese armies and navies have grown robustly in the past time, becoming an important pillar in the two nations’ relations.

They agreed to further strengthen the ties based on tackling disagreement in line with common conceptions of the two Party, State and army leaders to sustain security, peace, and stability in the region.

The delegation was also informed on China’s experience on Party-related work, particularly political education in the country’s army and navy.

The sides said they will continue boosting cooperation and experience exchange in carrying out Party-related and political work in their navies.
