Vietnamese Ambassador to Canada Pham Cao Phong briefed participants on major achievements Vietnam has gained over the past 91 years under the leadership of the CPV.

The country’s socio-political system has been stabilised; its defence security, independence and sovereignty maintained; and the spiritual and material lives of its people improved.

Vietnam has to date established diplomatic ties with 189 out of 193 United Nations members, and had economic linkages with 230 partners, with 17 free trade agreements signed with 58 partners, he stated.

Regarding the Vietnam-Canada relations, he stressed that the two countries commit to considering two-way trade and investment as the main driver for the bilateral ties. Both sides are also cooperating with each other in dealing with such global challenges as climate change, food security and environmental protection.
