Vietnam supports peace-building efforts in countries that have undergone conflict and is ready to share its experiences of capacity building and international cooperation with all interested parties, said a Vietnamese diplomat.
Addressing the open debate at the United Nations Security Council on “post-conflict peace building” in New York on July 22, the Vietnamese charge d’affaires to the UNSC, Ambassador Hoang Chi Trung, acknowledged the importance of measures taken by the UN in order to share information and mobilise finance for peace building activities.
He noted that the UN and the international community need to uproot the under-currents of conflicts by paying more attention to socio-economic reconstruction, reducing poverty, eradicating hunger and implementing the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
The ambassador also pointed out the role of domestic governments in peace building activities, especially in developing human resources and national self-reliance to lay the foundations for nation building efforts.
He also said that international assistance should be tailored to and driven by the specific needs and priorities of individual countries, with the consent of local parties, to develop national ownership, self-resilience and self-reliance.
