The two-day event offers a chance to review the implementation of resolutions adopted at the 43rd General Assembly of AIPA (AIPA-43), he said.
He proposed that delegates from the AIPA’s member parliaments, with practical experiences from their respective countries, engage in frank and open discussions and share experience related to common concerns of AIPA/ASEAN, and topics discussed at the meeting.
The hosting of the 14th AIPA Caucus by the Vietnamese NA is a practical activity to implement the Party and State's foreign policy on strengthening multilateral diplomacy by 2030 and promoting the role and position of the legislative body in regional and global inter-parliamentary cooperation mechanisms, especially within AIPA, thus asserting Vietnam's active, responsible, and proactive participation in AIPA.
