Hanoi (VNA) - The Ministry of National Defence held in Hanoi on June 14 the first scientific conference on the national-level topic on the solidarity among Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia led by Minister of National Defence Gen. Phan Van Giang.

Over 30 presentations by generals, experts, and scientists nationwide were sent to the event, offering in-depth and objective analysis of the long-standing bonds among the three nations, serving as a foundation for a comprehensive compilation on the topic.

Discussions focused on fundamental theoretical and historical issues regarding the process of building and developing the trilateral solidarity from 1930-1945, 1945-1954, and 1954-1975. Delegates proposed practical solutions to further strengthen ties between peoples as well as armies of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, maintaining peace, stability and sustainable development in the new situation.

Speaking at the closing ceremony, Sen. Lieut. Gen Nguyen Tan Cuong, Chief of the General Staff of the Vietnam People's Army and Deputy Minister of National Defence, commended the valuable contributions made at the event.

He called for a comprehensive analysis that considers the position and role of the Vietnam - Laos - Cambodia ties in history, the relationship between their governments and armies, and the various factors influencing their ties in the new situation. This analysis, he said, should propose feasible solutions to continue consolidating and strengthening solidarity and friendship between the three nations.

He also instructed the unit in charge of the topic to continue closely coordinating with relevant agencies to ensure the timely and successful completion of future research endeavours on this topic./.
