The meetings are expected to accelerate response to the pandemic, deal with its consequences and promote post-pandemic economic recovery, he continued. It also provides the president a chance to discuss with other heads of state about the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

He moved on to say that Viet Nam has been highly regarded by the international community for its work in the UNSC and UN at large and the imprints it has left after accomplishing its role as President of the UNSC in January 2020 and April 2021.

Many countries held that Viet Nam has fulfilled its commitments to the UNSC, foster the rule of law and enhance the role of the UN Charter and international laws, he noted, adding that one of Viet Nam’s successes as President of the UNSC was to have the Resolution on the protection of objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population adopted. It was the first UN resolution initiated by Viet Nam.
