For his part, Cuong said he is moved to receive the Grand Cross of the Order of “The Sun of Peru" on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the bilateral diplomatic ties (November 14, 1994 - 2024) and his first visit to Peru, a country renowned for its beauty and hospitality.

The State leader of Vietnam noted that the order is a special token of affection from the Peruvian State and people to Vietnam, as well as to the friendship and cooperation between the two countries.

He described the order as a great encouragement for him to work even harder, alongside friends in Peru, to further develop the Vietnam-Peru partnership, making it more substantive and effective towards new heights, for the benefit of the people of both nations as well as for peace, stability, and prosperity in the two regions and the world.

Cuong extended his heartfelt thanks to Peru for its support and solidarity during Vietnam’s struggle for national independence and reunification. He expressed his belief that the two nations will continue to unite and support each other in the years to come, thus growing bilateral cooperation across all sectors, and contributing to the development goals of both countries for the prosperity and happiness of their people./.
