At the talks, Mai, who is also Chairwoman of the Việt Nam-Japan Friendship Parliamentarians’ Group, congratulated the JCP on its achievements and new, important strides in the construction and development process over the past 100 years. She expressed her strong belief that the JCP will continue to gain many new achievements, and successfully organise its 29th congress in early 2024.

Mai affirmed Việt Nam's foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, peace, development, multilateralisation and diversification of foreign relations. She highly appreciated the establishment of the Việt Nam-Japan comprehensive strategic partnership for peace and prosperity in Asia and the world, which opened up a new stage of development in the bilateral relations.
The CPV and the people of Việt Nam always treasure the traditional friendship, mutual trust and understanding with the JCP, remember and appreciate the valuable support of the JCP and the Japanese people for the Vietnamese people through different periods, she said.
The Vietnamese Party official hoped that the JCP will continue its support for the Việt Nam-Japan relations, including the relationship between the two parliaments and their people.
For his part, Shii Kazuo informed the host about the situation in Japan, the JCP's recent construction and development, and the results of implementing the supplemented and amended platform approved at the 28th congress of the JCP.
He also shared the JCP's operational orientations in the coming time, including preparations for its 29th congress in January 2024.
Shii Kazuo affirmed that the JCP always cherishes the traditional friendship with the CPV, and supports Vietnam in promoting its role, position, and prestige in the region and the world.
The JCP shares Việt Nam's views on issues related to peace, stability, and development in Asia, including Southeast Asia, he said, adding that the JCP highly appreciates ASEAN's role and efforts in many fields, including the ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific (AOIP).
The official also mentioned the JCP's stand on several international and regional issues.
The two sides agreed to strengthen cooperation between the CPV and JCP through high-level contacts and exchanges and the sharing of information, theories, and practical experiences.
