Paraguay highly valued the Vietnamese people’s creativeness and capability to overcome difficulties during their national construction and development course, the visiting President said.
He hailed Vietnam ’s dynamism over the past years as well as its role and position in the region and the international arena, emphasising “ Vietnam holds an important position in Paraguay ’s external policy”.
