VIENTIANE — Minister of Foreign Affairs Bùi Thanh Sơn and his Lao counterpart expressed their delight at important achievements in the two countries’ cooperation in all fields during the 9th Việt Nam-Laos Foreign Minister's Consultation on Friday.

The two sides agreed to continue working together to serve high-level visits, together with ministries and localities of the two countries to continue effectively implementing the high-level agreements and the results of the 44th meeting of the Việt Nam-Laos Intergovernmental Committee, celebrating the "Year of Solidarity and Friendship between Việt Nam and Laos" this year.

Việt Nam and Laos agreed to continue promoting cooperation and consultation between concerned units of the two foreign ministries, and effectively maintaining periodic cooperation mechanisms between the two ministries.

They will implement the action programme to strengthen economic diplomatic cooperation between the two foreign ministries in the 2020-25 period and continue reviewing bilateral treaties signed by the two countries.

The two ministers also exchanged views on regional and international issues of common concern, agreeing to continue working closely at multilateral forums.

Together with other ASEAN countries, they will maintain ASEAN's common stance on the East Sea issue, settle disputes by peaceful means, and respect international law and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982. — VNS
