Deputy Minister of National Defence Senior Lieutenant General Hoang Xuan Chien unveiled the information while receiving defence attachés of the three countries in Hanoi on April 1 morning.

He told the officers that Vietnam is ramping up preparations for this important political event. The country always remembers support for its revolutionary cause from international friends, particularly China, Laos, and Cambodia, Deputy Minister Chien affirmed.

The Deputy Minister noted that the Vietnamese Defence Ministry is looking forward to the participation of the three counterparts, which would contribute to the celebration’s overall success and demonstrate solidarity and friendship between Vietnam and its three neighbouring countries.

In recent years, Vietnam has increasingly promoted defence cooperation with the three nations across fields, notably in delegation exchanges, military training and collaboration, and border defence friendship exchange.

The Defence Attachés said that they will promptly report to their respective authorities and provide relevant recommendations to advance the initiatives outlined by the Deputy Minister.
