King Norodom Sihamoni highly valued the visit, noting it demonstrates the importance the Vietnamese Party and State, and the President himself attach to the bilateral relationship.

At the meetings, the two sides rejoiced at the comprehensive, effective and practical development of the Vietnam-Cambodia cooperation over the past years, bringing tangible benefits to their people.

They appreciated mutual support, solidarity and sacrifice the two countries granted to each other during their past struggles for national liberation, as well as national construction and development at present.

Hun Sen praised Vietnam for its support and sacrifice to the Cambodian people during their past struggle against the Pol Pot genocidal regime, and their revival efforts.

The two sides agreed to renew and diversity communications methods to raise public awareness, especially among young generations, of the traditional friendship, closeness, solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation between the two Parties, countries and peoples.
