German businesses operating in Vietnam have consistently expressed their satisfaction with the country's dynamic and stable economy, as well as their confidence in its long-term growth prospects, said Vice President of the German Bundestag Bodo Ramelow.

The top leader stressed that ministries, sectors and localities of the two countries, including the two justice ministries, had made important contributions to the bilateral ties. Vietnam consistently regards strengthening relations with Laos as a strategic priority and stays ready to share development experience with its neighbouring nation.

Vietnam is taking a range of coordinated measures to unlock new drivers of development as it works towards achieving its two centenary goals. Along this journey, the country places great importance on cooperation with Canada, particularly in science and technology, innovation, and the training of all-level officials.

As an important bridge between Russia and ASEAN, Vietnam has consistently been among the most active supporters for expanding Russia’s cooperation with ASEAN. The country has proposed numerous initiatives and recommendations to strengthen ASEAN–Russia relations and has supported Russia’s more active participation in ASEAN-led mechanisms.

Angola particularly hopes to receive Vietnam’s support in cultivation techniques, technology transfer, and integrated agricultural solutions for key crops, including rice, cassava, and soybean, as well as forestry development.

Thanh reaffirmed that Vietnam's NA attaches great importance to and wants to further strengthen cooperation with the German Bundestag.

Vietnam and Germany agreed to increase delegation exchanges and maintain regular meetings between parliamentary leaders, committees and lawmakers, as well as step up cooperation in developing legal frameworks related to digital economy, green economy, energy, science and technology, and innovation.

Official media products should help readers and audiences better understand what is right and what serves the common good, thereby fostering trust and encouraging collective action, said top leader To Lam.

The following is a brief review of the day’s events as reported by the Vietnam News Agency.

Vietnamese Minister of Justice Hoang Thanh Tung urged deeper exchanges of experience in legal development, enforcement, judicial reform, personnel training, and digital transformation, as well as coordinated steps to fast-track the approval and launch of the Vietnamese Government’s technical assistance project to strengthen the capacity of Lao judicial officials.

According to the top legislator, the NA has in recent years significantly reformed its legislative approach by ensuring that laws regulate only matters falling within the legislature’s authority, while more detailed provisions are delegated to the Government and ministries to improve flexibility and responsiveness.

Against the backdrop of mounting challenges facing the oceans, including climate change, marine pollution, biodiversity loss, maritime security concerns, and the impacts of emerging technologies, Permanent Deputy Foreign Minister Nguyen Minh Vu called for stronger international cooperation and greater resource mobilisation to protect the oceans and ensure a peaceful, secure, and sustainable marine environment.

In his keynote speech, NA Vice Chairman Nguyen Khac Dinh presented the conclusion as a strategic vision for legal reform in the new development period. It spells out concrete goals, nine major orientations, six bundles of tasks and solutions, and assigns specific duties to the relevant bodies.

PM Hung’s participation in this summit once again reflects Vietnam’s consistent foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, resilience, peace, friendship, cooperation and development, as well as the diversification and multilateralisation of external relations in line with the spirit of the 14th National Party Congress.

Vietnam also stressed the need to advance more in-depth discussions on issues that have already garnered broad consensus, especially the reform of the UNSC’s working methods to enhance transparency, accountability, and effectiveness.

On the sidelines of the ASEAN–Russia Commemorative Summit in Kazan, PM Le Minh Hung is expected to meet President Putin and hold talks with the head of Russia's Republic of Tatarstan.

During the event, the Vietnamese delegation met with major French defence firms, including Airbus and UNAC, to discuss technology transfer, human resource training, technical support and defence industry development. Vietnam also invited international partners to participate in the Vietnam International Defence Expo 2026, scheduled to be held in Hanoi this December.

The following is a list of selected news summaries reported last night by the Vietnam News Agency.

Party General Secretary and State President To Lam emphasised that the friendship nurtured over decades, coupled with shared development visions, particularly in the green economy, maritime economy and circular economy, as well as growing connections in culture, sports, tourism and people-to-people links, will continue to serve as a solid foundation for deeper and more productive relations between Vietnam and Denmark.

Permanent Deputy PM Pham Gia Tuc urged deeper collaboration to promote comprehensive digital transformation in the judicial sector, develop high-quality legal professionals, and enhance partnerships in judicial digitalisation and international legal expert training.
