During the talks with Speaker of the Polish Lower House (Sejm) Ewa Kopacz on March 14 in Warsaw, Hung said his visit aims to further strengthen the traditional friendship and multi-faceted cooperation between the two countries and legislative bodies to open up new prospects for bilateral cooperation. 

Hung suggested that both sides increase experience exchange, help each other train experts in all areas, set up direct links among their businesses and localities. 

He also proposed that the two parliaments’ ties foster cooperation and delegation exchanges of all levels, and strengthen connectivity among professional agencies, particularly the two Friendship Parliamentarians Groups.  The two sides should also further promote the sharing of experience in lawmaking serving the transition and international integration process, especially in amending the National Constitution, he said.  He also recommended that the two sides strengthen coordination in multilateral parliamentary forums.  Kopacz said she believes Hung’s visit will make an important contribution to boosting links between the two nations and legislatures.  She said the Polish Lower House always wants to work closely with the Vietnamese NA to further improve the efficiency of their cooperation.  The host also agreed with Hung’s proposal to promote delegation exchanges, share experience in legislation and Constitution building, and supervise cooperation projects between the two Governments.  After the talks, Chairman Hung and his entourage laid a wreath in the Polish Lower House headquarters to pay tribute to Polish parliamentarians who died during World War II and the plane accident in Smolensk.  Poland is the last leg of NA Chairman Nguyen Sinh Hung’s European tour, which started on March 9. The tour included Russia and Germany.
