Upon conducting a review of the nation’s history and achievements in terms of socio-economy and foreign affairs over the past 75 years, Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Tien Thuc explained that the country has won the trust and support of the international community.

Ambassador Thuc went on to applaud the comprehensive partnership between both nations and affirmed that despite the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic hindering activities to mark the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries, both sides have enjoyed strong ties over the past seven decades.

Vietnam has always valued the Hungarian Government and people’s support for the nation during its struggle for independence, as well as in national construction and development, the Vietnamese diplomat said. Indeed, both sides will strive to boost the co-operative relations in all sectors, as well as working to elevate ties to new heights through working visits of high-level leaders, ministries, sectors, and localities.

In response, Gyula Nagy, a representative from the Hungary-Vietnam Friendship Association, said the Hungarian Government and people always support and pay special attention to their relations with Vietnam.

He hailed Vietnamese achievements in nation building and international integration over recent years, and expressed his delight over the close-knit bilateral relations between the two nations in the past.
