In a recent article by Pavel Vinodurov, the magazine noted that although NA Chairman Man had visited Russia multiple times, this trip is the first since he took office as the NA Chairman last May.
During his earlier meeting in Hanoi with Russian President Vladimir Putin, NA Chairman Man expressed his views on strengthening the bilateral legislative ties, saying Vietnam always treasures the traditional friendship and comprehensive strategic partnership with Russia. Vietnamese people always keep in mind the wholehearted support of the former Soviet Union and present Russia, according to the article.
The article highlighted the joint statement signed by Presidents Putin and To Lam, which also touched upon the expansion of the legislative ties.
It held that NA Chairman Man's visit is a step forward in consolidating the comprehensive relations and expanding political and economic ties between Russia and countries in the Asia-Pacific.
The article stressed Vietnam’s growing international influence and reputation following its successful implementation of goals set at the 13th National Party Congress. Recent discussions at the Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok, attended by academics from Vietnam, Russia, and other nations, also looked into cooperation between the two countries.
It cited NA Chairman Man as saying that Vietnam is resolved to promote its relations across spheres, for common interests, and for peace and stability in the world.
The journalist also pointed to growing tourism and education exchange, and defence cooperation as key areas of partnership, saying over 3,000 Vietnamese students are currently studying in Russia, and the defence ties remain strong, reflecting the trust and stability in the relationship.
