The top leader congratulated the Union of Vietnamese Organisations in Russia on being awarded a third-class Labour Order, and hoped that in the coming time, the union will continue to promote its core role in gathering and uniting the community, building an increasingly stable and developing community.

Regarding the embassy's staff, the Party chief urged them to further promote their mettle, professionalism and sense of responsibility, contributing to the relationship between Vietnam and Russia, serving the cause of national defence and development as Vietnam is entering new development era.

He requested the Vietnamese Embassy in Russia to pay more attention to affairs relating to overseas Vietnamese as the community is getting stronger and stronger.
