VTV.vn - Vietnam will ensure better fundamental human rights for its people, Vice President Dang Thi Ngoc Thinh said at the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) in Geneva, Switzerland, yesterday.

Speaking at the 32nd session of the UNHRC, she reiterated Vietnam’s consistent policy of respecting and ensuring human rights as well as obtaining international support and assistance in the field. She also pointed to numerous challenges that directly affect the enjoyment of human rights such as poverty, natural disasters, diseases, and terrorism, apart from extremism, and cross-border crimes and called on the international community to increase dialogue and co-operation to address the issues.

Vietnam hopes the UNHRC will support the country in carrying out the 2030 Agenda on sustainable development, specifically climate change adaptation.
