Speaking at the reception, Lao General Secretary and President Thongloun Sisoulith congratulated the great achievements that the Vietnamese people have achieved in recent times. On behalf of the Lao Party, State and people, the Lao General Secretary and President expressed his sincere gratitude and deep appreciation for the valuable, timely and effective support that the Party, State, army and people of Vietnam have given to the Lao Party, State, army and people during the past struggle for national liberation as well as during the current period of national protection and development.
"In this solemn and warm atmosphere of friendship, I would like to once again affirm that the profound relationship, great friendship, and special solidarity between Laos and Vietnam, Vietnam and Laos will not be broken by any force. Together we will strengthen, nurture, cherish, and preserve this special relationship forever for the two peoples for thousands of years to come."
Speaking at the reception, President Nguyen Xuan Phuc happily said that during this visit, the two sides agreed to open up many important development directions for the two countries in the coming time. Today, August 10, President Nguyen Xuan Phuc will join the General Secretary and President of Laos to attend the inauguration ceremony and handover of the new National Assembly building of Laos, a gift from the Party, State and people of Vietnam to the Party, State and people of Laos, a project that comrade Thongloun Sisoulith assessed as having four best qualities: most modern, most harmonious with national identity, most solid, with the greatest investment value, worthy of being a new symbol for the great friendship between Vietnam and Laos. More specifically, the President had the honor to speak at the 9th session of the National Assembly of Laos, vividly demonstrating the great friendship and special solidarity between Vietnam and Laos.
"In the warm atmosphere of tonight's party, I would like to reaffirm one thing: in a flat, globalized, internationally integrated world, as we are witnessing, a bilateral relationship that is profound, loyal, enduring, complete, and consistent with the brotherly affection between our two countries is extremely meaningful and rare. Because Laos and Vietnam, although two, are one, although their languages and customs are different, they are two sympathetic hearts sharing a common future," President Nguyen Xuan Phuc emphasized.
President Nguyen Xuan Phuc stated that consistently, the Party, State and people of Vietnam are willing to do their utmost together with the Party, State and people of Laos to forever preserve and promote the tradition of special Vietnam-Laos solidarity, for the prosperity, happiness and well-being of the people of the two countries./.
