Vietnam, informed his host of the good results of his talks with Chairwoman
of the Vietnam National Assembly Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan, affirming that the
Senate of Australia will continue promoting its role in enhancing cooperation
with the Vietnam NA and supporting the strategic partnership between the two
countries.
Australia will work closely with Vietnam in maintaining peace,
stability, and cooperation in the region as well as in implementing
efficiently agreements they joined, like the Comprehensive and Progressive
Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), he said.
He expressed his hope to further comprehensive cooperation
across the Party, Government, and National Assembly channels and
people-to-people relations, especially the exchange of high-level visits, and
visits between mass organizations, in the coming time.
Party General Secretary and State President Nguyen Phu Trong
described the visit by Senate President Scott Ryan as significant in the
context that the bilateral relations have entered a new phase of deeper and
more comprehensive development following the establishment of the strategic
partnership.
He hailed the outcomes of the talks between the Senate President
and the NA Chairwoman and suggested the two countries’ law-making bodies
continue working together in supervising the implementation of inked
agreements and action plans with a view to speeding up cooperation across the
board and within ASEAN and regional and global forums.
He asserted that Vietnam will coordinate closely with Australia
in implementing CPTPP, seeing it as an important mechanism for the two
countries to step up their partnership in economics and trade.
