On the morning of September 4, 2025, President Xi Jinping met at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing with Vietnamese President Luong Cuong, who is in China for the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. 

President Xi pointed out that the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War shows that a just cause enjoys great support, while an unjust one finds little. Victory will always belong to those who stand on the right side of history. China and Viet Nam need to jointly remember history and honor fallen heroes, strengthen strategic coordination, preserve the outcomes of the victory in the Second World War, safeguard international fairness and justice, and stand firmly on the right side of history.

President Xi stressed that China supports Viet Nam in pursuing its socialist path that suits the country's national conditions and in successfully convening the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Viet Nam. As both comrades and brothers, the two sides need to deepen the exchange of experience in governance of the party and of the country, organize a series of events to commemorate the 75th anniversary of diplomatic ties and the China-Viet Nam Year of People-to-People Exchanges, and deliver more benefits to the two peoples. In face of the unpopular trends of unilateralism and the law of the jungle, more and more countries have come to realize that compromise and concession will lead nowhere, and that only solidarity and self-strengthening will bring hope. President Xi Jinping said he proposed the Global Governance Initiative with the aim of making the global governance system more just and equitable. China is ready to work with Viet Nam to safeguard the common interests of the Global South, and contribute more positive energy to the world.

President Luong Cuong warmly congratulated China on successfully holding the events marking the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin. He said that the two important events have demonstrated China's international standing and influence. Viet Nam believes that China will continue to develop further, achieve the goals of Chinese modernization, and play a bigger role in promoting peace and development in the region and the world. The relations between the two Parties and two countries have seen sound development, with close high-level exchanges and good progress in cooperation in various fields. For Viet Nam, the relationship with China carries strategic significance and is a top priority in its foreign policy. In a changing and turbulent world, Viet Nam remains committed to growing its relations with China. Viet Nam will work with China in the spirit of solidarity and mutual support, enhance political mutual trust, and strengthen experience sharing in governance. Viet Nam is ready to build greater synergy between the development strategies of the two countries, expand cooperation in economy and trade, infrastructure, science and technology, education and other fields. Viet Nam will coordinate with China on multilateral platforms, uphold the authority of the United Nations and international trade rules, and work for reforming and improving the global governance system.
