Mr. Man emphasized that the world is undergoing significant upheavals with rapid and complex developments, which pose obstacles to global peace and human security and even threaten the shared prosperity of Asian nations.  

He stressed that ruling political parties need to and can fully promote joint strength and efforts to realize the common goal of peace, security, prosperity and development in the world in general and the Asian region in particular.

Under the leadership of the Communist Party, Vietnam consistently pursues its foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, multilateralisation and diversification of international relations, ready to be a friend, a reliable partner, and an active, responsible member of the international community, said Mr Man. 

"The key to peacefully resolving current disagreements and conflicts lies in dialogue and multilateral cooperation based on equality, mutual respect, win-win collaboration, and adherence to international law and the UN Charter," he stressed.
