The Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) is to prioritise its International Data Centre (IDC) human resource building programme with Vietnam, and will provide necessary technical assistance to help the country improve personnel capacity for national construction and development.
Executive Secretary of the Preparatory Commission for the CTBTO, Tibor Toth, made the remarks at a reception for Vietnamese Ambassador to the CTBTO Nguyen Thiep, who presented his credentials to the Executive Secretary in Vienna, Austria on November 29.
