At the reception in Hanoi, Chairman Hue applauded the progress in the two countries' relations, especially the agreement between the two sides to continue to deepen and elevate the bilateral comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership to a “Vietnam-China community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.”

The NA Chairman emphasized that in the overall efforts to promote " higher political trust", the cooperative relationship between the National Assembly of Vietnam and the People's Republic of China is constantly consolidated and developed.

The two sides maintain exchanges in many flexible forms, such as online talks, sending delegations of leaders of committees, specialized agencies, and friendly groups of parliamentarians to visit each other; contact, consultation, and close coordination on regional and global forums, especially the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) and the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA). The two sides agreed to continue visits by senior leaders and legislative bodies of the two countries.

Chairman Hue said he believes that with his experience and understanding of Vietnam and the two countries' relations, Ambassador Xiong Bo will continue to be a bridge to effectively boost cooperation between the two countries, contribute to good implementation of shared perceptions of senior leaders, and concretize new achievements and new connotations of the Vietnam-China comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership.
