He stressed Vietnam’s commitment to gender equality, prioritizing creating an environment conducive to promoting women’s roles and contributions to socio-economic development, and actively participating in the international community’s efforts in this regard. Within the UN, Vietnam has made many concrete contributions to the protection of women’s rights and gender equality and is willing to continue its efforts in this field, especially as a member of UN Women for the 2025-2027 term. Amanda Nguyen can contribute to strengthening national unity and play a bridging role in the development of Vietnam-US relations, Giang said.

In response, Amanda Nguyen expressed her hope that her future space mission would be an opportunity to promote the image of Vietnamese women, strengthen community ties, and encourage cooperation in promoting equal rights and combating violence and abuse against women.
