The Prime Minister said that entering the new year 2025, Vietnam is full of aspirations and determination to enter a new era - the era of striving to develop a rich, civilized and prosperous nation. To successfully achieve the strategic goal of striving to become a developing country with modern industry and high average income by 2030; and to become a developed country with high income by 2045, from 2025, Vietnam sets a growth target of about 8% and double digits if conditions are favorable, creating momentum, force and rhythm to achieve double-digit growth in the following years.

To realize that aspiration, Vietnam firmly adheres to a foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, diversification, multilateralization, being a good friend, a reliable partner and an active, responsible member of the international community for the goal of peace, cooperation and development in the region and the world.

On that journey, Vietnam hopes to continue to receive support, assistance and close cooperation from international friends, including Ambassadors and Heads of International Organizations, to develop the friendship and cooperation between the two sides more closely, deeply, practically and effectively. Standing side by side with the international community, Vietnam will further contribute to peace, cooperation, development and solving common global issues, contributing to building a fair and equal international order based on international law, serving the common interests of humanity.

The Prime Minister affirmed that the Party, State and people of Vietnam will create the most favorable conditions for Ambassadors and Heads of Representatives of international organizations in Vietnam to not only fulfill their responsibilities well but also increasingly love the country and people of Vietnam; consider Vietnam as a close and warm home, as their second home, and join hands to build that home to be increasingly prosperous, happy and developing together.

Believing that, although welcoming the New Year at different times, all nations share the same aspirations for peace, friendship, cooperation, development and a prosperous and happy world where no one is left behind, the Prime Minister believes that "Together - we will overcome all difficulties and challenges; Together - we will turn nothing into something, turn difficult into easy, turn the impossible into possible; Together - we will join hands to build an increasingly better world".
