Vietnamese Ambassador to China Pham Thanh Binh on July 25 presented his credentials to Chinese Party General Secretary and President Xi Jinping during a ceremony attended by 16 newly appointed ambassadors from various countries.
Following Party General Secretary To Lam’s directions at the ceremony, the Vietnamese Embassy in China and other Vietnamese representative agencies abroad would work closely with local authorities, agencies, and mass organisations. The goal is to build a streamlined, modern administrative system that better serves both domestic and overseas Vietnamese (OV) communities.
This is Xi's first overseas visit in 2025, his fourth visit to Vietnam as China's top leader, and the second within his current term. It demonstrates the high regard that the Chinese Party and State, as well as the leader personally, place on strengthening the friendly neighbourliness and comprehensive cooperation between Vietnam and China.
Ambassador Pham Thanh Binh stressed that the Vietnamese Party and State highly value the consolidation and strengthening of friendship and cooperation with the Chinese Party, State and people, considering it a top priority and a strategic choice in Vietnam’s foreign policy.
