According to Rabindra Adhikari, Chairman of the Nepal Peace and Solidarity Council, Vietnam and Nepal have a good tradition of friendship and cooperation. The Nepali people support the Vietnamese people's struggle for independence, admire and respect President Ho Chi Minh; and believe in the process of the current national construction and socio-economic development under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam.

He said the Viet Nam Union of Friendship Organizations, Vietnam - Nepal Friendship Association, and Nepal Peace and Solidarity Council play an important role in promoting people-to-people exchanges between the two countries. To enhance people-to-people exchanges and promote trade, investment, and tourism cooperation, the two countries need to promote the opening of diplomatic representative offices and direct flights.

Nguyen Ngoc Hung, Vice President of the Viet Nam Union of Friendship Organizations, thanked the Nepali people for their support for Vietnam in the struggle for national liberation. The Viet Nam Union of Friendship Organizations hopes that the Nepali side will actively advocate for the establishment of the Nepal-Vietnam Friendship Association in the near future.

The two sides agreed to maintain cooperation and information exchange and continue to discuss specific activities to further strengthen people-to-people exchanges between the two countries.
