They showed a determination to effectively implement agreements reached by senior leaders of both countries and the outcomes of the 44th meeting of the Vietnam-Laos Inter-Governmental Committee.
They will continue to coordinate closely in organising delegation exchanges at all levels and conducting remaining activities of the Vietnam-Laos, Laos-Vietnam Friendship and Solidarity Year.
They will work to hasten the progress of major cooperation projects, while strengthen their coordination and mutual support at international, regional and sub-regional forums./.
