Chairman of the National Assembly (NA) Tran Thanh Man had a meeting with Secretary-General of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) Martin Chungong on the sidelines of the 150th IPU Assembly in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, on April 6 afternoon.

Expressing his delight at meeting the IPU Secretary-General – a close friend of the Vietnamese NA – again, Man thanked Chungong for his sentiments towards and assistance for Vietnam, which have helped foster the Vietnam – IPU cooperation.

Chungong appreciated the Vietnamese NA’s consistent support for the IPU to successfully carry out programmes, strategies, and priority activities, especially the country’s hosting of the IPU-132 in 2015, which adopted the historic Hanoi Declaration that helped the IPU become the first international organisation to mention the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the 9th Global Conference of Young Parliamentarians in 2023, which issued a statement on “The role of youth in accelerating the achievement of the SDGs through digital transformation and innovation”.
