President of the State at UN General Assembly 80 underscores Vietnam's dedication to multilateralism, asserts diplomat
Vietnam, with its solid foundation built on a proud history, strong development achievements, open foreign policy, comprehensive international integration, and the wise leadership of the Party and State, confidently enters a new era. This was evident as Vietnam's President, Luong Cuong, prepared to attend the high-level General Debate of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 80) and the High-level Week to mark the 80th founding anniversary of the UN.
The UN General Assembly offers world leaders a platform to share views, propose solutions to global issues, shape a strategic vision for the UN, and work towards a more peaceful, prosperous, just, and sustainable world. President Cuong's attendance reaffirms Vietnam's strong commitment to multilateralism and the UN's core values.
In recent years, Vietnam has achieved significant accomplishments, further enhancing its image in the eyes of international friends and affirming its role as an active, responsible, and proactive member of the UN. The diplomat, Permanent Representative of Vietnam to the UN Ambassador Dỗ Hùng Việt, stated that the State leader's presence reflects the Party and State's strong attention to multilateral cooperation and the UN's major agendas.
Vietnam's foreign policy includes independence, self-reliance, and multilateralisation and diversification of relations, and comprehensive, extensive, and effective international integration. The nation will continue its extensive engagement and contributions at the UN, focusing on promoting multilateralism, upholding international law, and the UN Charter.
One of Vietnam's key objectives at UNGA 80 is to honour the value of peace. President Cuong is expected to underscore a message on honouring the value of peace, driving strong transformation to build a sustainable future. Peace is the solid foundation for all social progress and development, and for ensuring a better, more sustainable future for all.
Vietnam will seek and assume key positions within the UN, including serving as Chair of the 11th Review Conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) in 2026. The nation will also run for membership of the UN Human Rights Council for the 2026-2028 tenure.
In October 2025, Vietnam will host the signing ceremony of the UN Convention against Cybercrime in Hanoi - the first UN convention to bear the name 'Hà Nội convention'. The name of Vietnam's representative who will conduct the signing ceremony is President Luong Cuong.
Vietnam will expand its participation in UN peacekeeping operations and will run for a judge at the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) for the 2026-2035 term. The nation will also keep advancing its National Action Plan to implement the 2030 Agenda.
Vietnam will support and contribute to UN reform efforts, aiming for a more streamlined, cohesive, and effective organisation. The country's message at UNGA 80 underscores its strong determination to pursue its strategic goals - becoming a developing country with modern industry and upper-middle income by 2030, and a developed and high-income nation by 2045.
In conclusion, Vietnam's active participation and contributions at the UNGA 80 reflect the nation's commitment to upholding peace, promoting multilateralism, and working towards a more sustainable future for all.
