Receiving UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed, who is in Vietnam to attend the 4th Partnering for Green Growth and the Global Goals 2030 (P4G) Summit, President Cuong emphasised that this is the first multilateral summit on green growth, green transition, and sustainable development hosted by Vietnam.
He expressed his appreciation for the participation of Amina Mohammed, thereby affirming the UN's commitment to promoting green growth, addressing global challenges, as well as strengthening the Vietnam-UN cooperation.
The President also highlighted that 2025 is a significant milestone for both Vietnam and the UN, as it marks the 80th anniversary of the establishment and development of the UN, as well as the 80th anniversary of Vietnam's independence and the 50th anniversary of its reunification.
Vietnam always highly evaluates the important contributions of the United Nations over the past eight decades in maintaining world peace and security, as well as promoting international cooperation for sustainable development; and bears in mind the valuable support that the organisation has consistently provided for Vietnam, from the post-war reconstruction period to the process of renewal and international integration, he stressed.

Affirming strong support for multilateralism with the UN at its core, President Cuong stressed that Vietnam is steadfast in its foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, and diversification and multilateralisation of international relations, and remains an active and responsible member of the international community in addressing global issues.
While asserting that the Vietnam-UN partnership has developed positively and extensively over nearly five decades, Amina Mohammed said the UN appreciates Vietnam's role and contributions to its activities and is eager to share Vietnam's successful development experiences with its partners.
On this occasion, the two sides exchanged views on the global and regional situation and challenges facing multilateralism. They agreed to strengthen cooperation, jointly promote multilateral cooperation and the role of the United Nations in global governance, preserve and promote the principles and core values of the organisation since its establishment in 1945.
