Lich, accompanied by a delegation of defence officials, is
visiting Myanmar at the invitation of Commander-in-Chief of the Myanmar Armed
Forces, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing.
He paid a courtesy visit to Myanmar President Htin Kyaw in the capital city of
Nay Pyi Taw on October 2. Welcoming the delegation, President Htin Kyaw said
Lich’s visit, which came shortly after the State visit by Party General
Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, contributed to strengthening friendship, trust and
mutual understanding between the two countries and armies for the benefit of
their people.
The bilateral ties in defence between Vietnam and Myanmar have produced
positive outcomes lately, he noted, affirming his continued support for the
development of the partnership, dedicating to promoting the two nations’
comprehensive cooperation.
The president thanked Vietnam for backing Myanmar and its people during the
country’s ongoing reform and reconciliation process.
Minister Ngo Xuan Lich, for his part, congratulated achievements of the new
Myanmar government in national reconciliation, economic and political reforms
and foreign affairs and reiterated support of the Vietnamese State and Party
for Myanmar’s process of promoting democracy and national reconciliation.
Lich later held talks with Senior General Min Aung Hlaing who greeted him in a
formal welcome ceremony.
Speaking at the meeting, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing said he hopes the visit
will help deepen relations between the armies of Vietnam and Myanmar and
enhance the effectiveness of the bilateral partnership for regional and global
peace, stability, cooperation and development.
The two sides updated each other on their nations’ political, socio-economic,
and security-defence development and reviewed the bilateral cooperation in
recent years.
They agreed to continue exchange visits at all levels, experience sharing in
border management and prevention of smuggling and other crimes, and increasing
cooperation in army medicine and between military companies. They will also
actively support each other at multilateral forums.

Many other dangerous diseases are also likely to break out when the global vaccination rate slows down, due to inequality in access to health services, vaccine hesitancy, and consequences of economic recession.
