In his speech, First Secretary of the HCYU Central Committee Bui Quang Huy highlighted the considerable achievements that Vietnam and China have attained in recent years, which have elevated their reputation on the global stage.

He credited the proactive and pioneering role of youth, guided by their respective Parties, for translating Party resolutions into tangible societal impact. Yet, Huy also warned of shared challenges facing both nations’ youth movements, including a volatile global environment, erosion of cultural identity, and population aging.
