Phnom Penh (VNA) – Vietnamese Ambassador to Cambodia Nguyen Minh Vu has stressed the significance of 2025 as the year to prepare for Vietnam’s entry into a new era, an era of development, prosperity, and strength.
Addressing a ceremony marking the 95th founding anniversary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) on February 3, the diplomat noted that in 2024, Vietnam and Cambodia continued to deepen their bilateral relations, achieving significant progress in several areas. Cooperation in politics, diplomacy, and national defence-security grew stronger, while economic, trade, and investment exchanges showed dynamic growth, benefiting the development of both countries.
In 2024, the Party organisation in Cambodia successfully carried out its political responsibilities in various areas including politics, economics, national defence, cultural diplomacy, citizen protection, and support for the Vietnamese community in Cambodia. The embassy played an instrumental role in fulfilling the Party’s foreign policy, fostering deeper friendship and cooperation between the two nations, he noted.
Looking ahead to 2025, the ambassador emphasised the significance of the year, which will be marked by Party congresses at all levels leading to the 14th National Party Congress. He stressed the need for unity in the Party, the promotion of democracy, and the mobilisation of collective wisdom to ensure successful preparations for the congress and the effective implementation of political tasks./.

Had it not been for President Ho Chi Minh and the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV)’s leadership, or the Vietnamese army and people’s fierce battles, the victories of the two resistance wars as well as the country’s independence, sovereignty and unity would have been out of reach, a Chinese researcher has said.
Ha expressed his hope that cooperation in science and technology, agriculture, and natural resources would emerge as new focal points and engines of growth in Vietnam–China relations.
Giang said he believes that building on the solid foundation nurtured over the past half-century and the strong determination of both nations, the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership will continue to grow in a more robust, comprehensive, and extensive manner, thus bringing more practical benefits to the two nations' people.
