HÀ NỘI — Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính spoke highly of cooperation between the Russian Federal Bar Association (RFBA) and the Việt Nam Lawyers’ Association (VLA) while receiving RFBA Chairman Sergey Stepashin, who is also former Prime Minister of Russia, in Hà Nội on Tuesday.
PM Chính affirmed that Việt Nam always attaches importance to and wants to continue deepening and developing its traditional friendship and comprehensive strategic partnership with Russia, contributing to peace, cooperation and development in the region and the world.
