Vietnam strengthens diplomatic and youth ties with Cambodia and Finland

In Hanoi, Nguyen Kim Quy, Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union, met with a delegation of volunteer doctors from the Cambodian Youth Federation. Led by Leng Phaly, a Secretary of State for the Cambodian Ministry of Planning, the delegation's visit aims to strengthen friendship and cooperation between the youth and medical professionals of both nations.

Separately, Vietnam and Finland are advancing their relationship through a strategic partnership.
