Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, received a reply message from the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam on July 29.

The CPV Central Committee in the message expressed heartfelt thanks to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un for extending, on behalf of the Korean Party, state and people, sincere condolences to the Vietnamese counterparts and the families of the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, for making sure that a delegation of the WPK headed by Jo Yong Won, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau and secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK, paid a condolatory visit to the Vietnamese embassy in Pyongyang and made an entry in a condolence book, and for sending a special envoy of the DPRK government to the state funeral held in Hanoi to express his feelings toward the traditional friendly relations between Vietnam and the DPRK and General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong.

Nguyen Phu Trong served the country and the people all his life and constantly developed friendly relations with other countries and political parties of different countries including the Workers' Party of Korea and foreign friends, the message noted, adding:

In his lifetime Nguyen Phu Trong prioritized and paid close attention to the work of inheriting and developing the traditional relations of friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and the DPRK, personally forged and promoted by President Ho Chi Minh and President Kim Il Sung with much care, and this was expressed in the historic talks held between General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong and you in Hanoi in March 2019.

The Central Committee of the CPV in the message expressed its willingness to steadily and successfully develop the Vietnam-DPRK relations, together with the Korean Party, state and people, for the continued development of the traditional friendship between the two parties, the two states and the two peoples, happiness of the peoples of the two countries and regional and global peace, stability, cooperation and development.
