President Trump welcomes Vietnam’s decision to join Peace Council
U.S. President Donald Trump has sent a message congratulating Vietnam’s Party General Secretary To Lam on his re-election for a 14th term and welcoming Vietnam’s decision to join the Peace Council initiative.
President Trump said General Secretary Lam’s continued leadership role comes at an important time, as Vietnam and the U.S. are pressing ahead with the positive outcomes achieved in bilateral relations in recent years.
The President also expressed his hope that the two sides would soon make positive progress in negotiations on a reciprocal, fair and balanced trade agreement, thereby further promoting shared prosperity.
He welcomed Vietnam’s decision to join the Peace Council initiative, and thanked and highly valued Vietnam’s role as well as Vietnam-U.S. cooperation in promoting peace and safeguarding freedom, sovereignty and independence of countries in the Indo-Pacific and the world at large.
President Trump said he is confident that Vietnam-U.S. relations would continue to deepen across all fields, from economy and trade to security, defense and people-to-people exchanges, and expressed his hope to welcome General Secretary Lam to the U.S. at an appropriate time.
General Secretary Lam accepted the invitation from U.S. President Donald Trump last month to join the Gaza Peace Council and affirmed Vietnam’s readiness to participate as a founding member state of the council.
President Trump sent a letter to General Secretary Lam on Jan. 16, inviting the Party chief and Vietnam to participate in the Gaza Peace Council as a founding member state, alongside the international community, to promote a sustainable, peaceful solution to the conflict between Israel and Palestine in the Gaza Strip.
