Speaking at the event, Sen. Lieut. Col. Nguyen Duc Cuong, head of the Vietnamese delegation, affirmed that the visit by Indian young officers is part of activities to enhance friendship, mutual understanding and trust, thereby strengthening the Vietnam-India comprehensive strategic partnership.

He voiced his hope that the countries’ armies will be further active in promoting the Vietnam-Indian Joint Vision Statement on defence cooperation for 2015-2020 and agreements reached by the two defence ministries for young officers.

The two sides should bolster exchange and experience sharing in the spheres of armed forces building, military art, policies for soldiers and martyrs, and United Nations’ peacekeeping, among others.
