Vientiane (VNA) - Sounthone Sayachak, head of the Lao Party Central
Committee’s Commission for External Relations has attributed comprehensive
achievements and progresses of the country during the national defence and
construction process to the leadership role played by the Communist Party of
Vietnam (CPV).
During a recent interview granted to Laos-based Vietnam News Agency’s
correspondents on the occasion of the CPV’s 13th National Congress,
Sounthone Sayachak spotlighted successes made by the Vietnamese Party, State
and People in recent times, especially in maintaining political stability and
economic growth, responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and overcoming
consequences of natural disasters.
Vietnam has also recorded outstanding achievements in Party building, making
the CPV stronger and stronger, consolidating public trust in the Party and the
Government, she noted.
Sounthone also pointed out Vietnam’s successes in ensuring security and
defence, promoting socio-economic development and poverty reduction, as well as
in foreign affairs and international integration, noting that in 2020, Vietnam
excellently completed its role as the Chair of ASEAN and a non-permanent member
of the United Nations Security Council for the 2020-2021 term.
These achievements and contributions have enhanced Vietnam’s role and position
in regional and international forums, she said.
Looking back at Vietnam’s
history, the official stressed that all the success and progresses of the
Vietnamese people and revolution are attributable to the leadership of the CPV.
She highlighted that the great friendship, special solidarity and comprehensive
cooperation between Vietnam and Laos have constantly been consolidated and
developed in all fields, bringing practical benefits for both countries.
She took the occasion to express gratitude to the Vietnamese Party, Government
and people for their valuable and effective support to Laos’s revolutionary
cause in the past and its defence and construction at present.
She wished the CPV a successful Congress, expressing the hope that the
Vietnamese Party will continuously lead the country to move forward, fulfilling
the goal of building a strong country with prosperous people, and equitable,
democratic and civilized society./.
