Speaking at a dialogue at the UN headquarters in New York with Secretary-General António Guterres on the contributions of the Francophonie bloc to the implementation of the UN agenda and his 2025 priorities, Ambassador Giang underscored Vietnam’s strong support for initiatives aimed at accelerating climate action and ensuring climate financing, as well as for the Secretary-General’s efforts toward reforming the UN development system.
Vietnam will work closely with UN member states, OIF partners, ASEAN, and African nations to advance climate objectives, he said, highlighting the country’s intention to increase its contributions to UN peacekeeping operations in the near future.
On this occasion, Ambassador Giang extended an invitation to the UN Secretary-General and all OIF member states to attend the signing ceremony of the UN Convention against Cybercrime, set to take place in Hanoi later this year.
