He showed his appreciation to Carmona who in the 1970s actively participated in anti-war movements and supported the Vietnamese people, and acknowledged Carmona’s significant contributions to fostering relations between the two Parties and the two peoples.
Cuong conveyed the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam To Lam's regards and invitation to Carmona to visit Vietnam at a convenient time. He expressed his confidence that as a member of Chile’s ruling coalition, the Communist Party of Chile will actively contribute to the Chilean left-wing government’s success, especially in advancing proactive foreign policies and international cooperation.
Briefing the Communist Party of Chile's leader on Vietnam’s current situation and the role of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Cuong said that despite severe war consequences and today’s complex global landscape, Vietnam has made historic achievements over the past nearly 40 years of Doi Moi (Renewal). Vietnam is now among the world's 40 largest economies and one of the 20 fastest-growing countries. Vietnam constantly pursues a foreign policy of independence, peace, and proactive international integration, being a reliable partner and responsible member of the international community, he said.
The State leader said that the 13th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam set a goal for Vietnam to become a developing country with a modern industry and upper middle income by 2030-marking the 100th anniversary of the Party- and a high-income developed country by 2045, celebrating 100 years of the National Day. He emphasised the importance of international support, including from Chile, in achieving these goals.
Chile is currently Vietnam’s leading export market in Latin America, while Vietnam is Chile’s top trade partner in ASEAN, he noted, adding that the Communist Party of Vietnam highly values and wishes to promote cooperation with ruling and progressive as well as political parties with traditional friendship, including the Communist Party of Chile, for the benefit of people in each country and peace, cooperation and development in the region and the world.
Cuong said that Vietnam sticks to the path of independence towards socialism, and stressed the importance of experience-sharing between the two Communist Parties.
For his part, Carmona said that attendees at the meeting represented different generations, yet shared a common admiration for Vietnam’s people and culture. Many had once marched for peace in solidarity with Vietnam’s cause, he said.
He described Vietnam as a model in the world, including for Chile. The Communist Party of Chile has drawn valuable lessons from Vietnam’s experience in national liberation, particularly the commitment to an all-inclusive revolutionary cause, and the engagement of all people in national development. He acknowledged the current challenges facing Chile’s governing coalition and underscored the party’s commitment to strengthening its own capacities and learning from Vietnam’s model, especially in approaches suited to Chile’s context.
Carmona assured that, regardless of political parties, Chilean leaders always support cooperation with Vietnam in all fields.
