Laos: President Thongloun’s full article ahead of his visit to Russia
“Notable achievements in political and security cooperation: Our two countries have maintained frequent exchanges at various levels, from technical to top leadership. Party-to-party relations have grown closer. Russia has continued to train Lao personnel in various fields, including national defence and security, while also providing assistance in education and healthcare.”
“In recent years, Russia has dispatched bomb disposal teams to Laos to help clear unexploded ordnance (UXO) left from US airstrikes during the war. These remnants of war continue to cause suffering and casualties among the Lao people to this day. This demonstrates Russia’s humanitarian cooperation with Laos, among other key areas.”
“Regarding multilateral cooperation, our two countries have consistently supported each other, shared similar views on many issues, and upheld the fundamental principles of international relations. Both sides have promoted multilateralism and the establishment of a multipolar world with a more just and equitable global order. I highly commend Russia’s role as a pillar of peace and stability in today’s turbulent world.”
