The President expressed his hope that the comrades appointed this time will continue to inherit the fine diplomatic tradition, promote the achievements of previous ambassadors and heads of representative agencies; consider the good results achieved today as a foundation, a fulcrum, an opportunity, and at the same time a challenge to motivate themselves to strive and do better.

The term of office of these ambassadors and heads of representative agencies coincides with the "sprint" period to successfully implement the goals set by the 13th National Party Congress and prepare for the 14th National Party Congress. While the world and regional situation is undergoing many complex changes, posing increasingly challenging and heavier requirements for foreign affairs and diplomacy, the President requested that Vietnamese ambassadors and heads of representative agencies abroad perform their duties well.

The President also requested that ambassadors and heads of Vietnamese representative agencies abroad closely follow the Party and State's guidelines and policies in all fields, grasp the situation of the country and the local situation, promptly inform and advise Party and State leaders to set out correct foreign policies and guidelines, in line with reality, so that foreign affairs and diplomacy are pioneering factors, opening up and creating a peaceful, stable and favorable environment for national development, ensuring the highest interests of the nation.

President Vo Van Thuong noted that ambassadors and heads of Vietnamese representative agencies abroad need to pay attention to raising the level of multilateral diplomacy and strive to promote Vietnam's role when participating in regional and international mechanisms.

Ambassadors and heads of Vietnamese representative agencies abroad must strive to make Vietnamese representative agencies abroad a solid and trustworthy support for Party and State leaders, agencies, departments, ministries, branches and localities in implementing foreign affairs activities in the area.

At the same time, Vietnamese representative agencies abroad must become "warm homes" for overseas Vietnamese, demonstrating the care of the Party and State for the Vietnamese community abroad.

The President affirmed that Vietnamese representative agencies abroad need to play the role of a bridge for international solidarity, consolidate Vietnam's network of friends and partners, and carry out President Ho Chi Minh's advice in the current context: "Unity, unity, great unity, success, success, great success".
