Mr. Beasley said Vietnam has transformed itself from an aid recipient to one of the largest exporters of rice and other agricultural products in the world, and urged Vietnam to share its experience and provide technical assistance to underdeveloped countries.

He reiterated Vietnam’s commitment to closely cooperating with the WFP and other UN agencies in fulfilling the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in poverty reduction.
