Triet delivered the statement during his meeting in Hanoi Friday with the UN Resident Coordinator in Vietnam, John Hendra.
The Vietnamese President applauded the contributions of a number of UN agencies to Vietnam’s socio-economic development and said he wished for further cooperation with those agencies.
He highlighted the important role of the UN coordinator in Vietnam in helping the international community gain a thorough understanding of the country.
Triet also reiterated the country’s backing of the UN reform process, which includes those agencies posted in Vietnam, describing the “One UN” initiative as a much-needed reform.
He confirmed the country’s support for multilateral institutions, particularly the UN, in increasingly promoting their role in solving international issues.
The UN Resident Coordinator talked about Vietnam’s numerous contributions to the reform of the UN Security Council, saying that he expected Vietnam to make even greater contributions to UN activities in the future.
He told Triet that, in the current economic situation, UN agencies in Vietnam were looking to shift to providing policy consultancy services to the nation and helping strengthen the country’s policy-building capacity.
Although Vietnam is a pioneer in implementing a number of UN programs, including the “One UN” initiative, there were vital goals within those programs relating to legal reform and state management, Hendra reminded his host.
