December 17, Pozirk<\/em>. <\/strong>Belarusian Defense Minister Viktar Chenin and his Vietnamese counterpart General Phan Van Giang have signed a protocol confirming mutual intentions to strengthen defense ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Belarusian official, currently visiting Hanoi, described Vietnam as \u201cone of the most significant partners\u201d of Belarus in Southeast Asia, the defense ministry\u2019s press office reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe that the successful interaction is based on similar principles of foreign policy, primarily a commitment to peaceful settlement of international problems and . . .  not against other countries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarus is ready to help other countries improve their defense capabilities provided they pursue a friendly policy toward it, the official added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He praised Vietnam for a “worthy contribution\u201d to regional and global peace, citing its participation in UN peacekeeping missions, humanitarian aid, search and rescue operations and hoping to expand bilateral ties in these areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phan Van Giang reportedly accepted Chenin\u2019s invitation to visit Minsk in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chrenin arrived in Vietnam yesterday and is expected to participate in Vietnam Defense Expo 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two months ago, Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka praised Vietnam’s newly elected President Luong Cuong for promoting defense and security cooperation between Belarus and Vietnam during his eight-year tenure as the political department\u2019s chief at the Vietnam People\u2019s Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minsk and Hanoi prefer a multipolar world order and have similar approaches to international politics, the Belarusian ruler said earlier, stressing the priority of security issues in bilateral relations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, Vietnam arrested and extradited to Belarus Vasil Vieramiej\u010dyk, a Belarusian volunteer who fought Russia in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
