Vietnam Voices Firm Support for Independent Palestinian State
The renewed position came during talks in Hanoi between Vietnam’s top diplomat Le Hoai Trung and his visiting Palestinian counterpart Varsen Aghabekian Shahin, who arrived Wednesday on her first official trip to the country, the outlet reported.
During the meeting, Trung said Vietnam stands ready to help rebuild Gaza as the devastation from ongoing conflict continues to mount. He underscored Hanoi’s long-held principles, reaffirming support for a two-state framework leading to an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital in line with international law and relevant UN resolutions.
“Vietnam has always consistently supported the just struggle of the Palestinian people for independence and national self-determination,” he said.
Shahin expressed gratitude for Vietnam’s continued assistance, thanking Hanoi for its “valuable” backing of the “just” pursuit of Palestinian self-determination. She noted that both nations share a history of striving for independence and said she hopes Vietnam will maintain its support to help end the conflict.
The two foreign ministers also agreed on a set of steps to strengthen bilateral relations, including expanded high-level exchanges, deeper economic cooperation, and new initiatives in education, training, and people-to-people engagement.
To conclude the talks, Trung and Shahin signed a visa-waiver pact for diplomatic passport holders from both countries.
