Thank you very much, my dear friend, we are happy to continue our regular contacts. Thank you for the hospitality accorded to my delegation in the Lao People's Democratic Republic in 2021.

Today, we can compare our positions and look at our governments' joint efforts in line with agreements on cooperation in strategic areas, which were reached by the presidents of our countries.

As you said, we have been and will be together in both good and bad times. The world situation requires regular consultations and a better understanding of each other. I think our relations are a model in this respect.

I would also like to congratulate you on your recent appointment as Deputy Prime Minister in addition to the ministerial portfolio. We hope for future cooperation.
