Viet Nam has successfully performed its role, demonstrated through its extensive participation in the discussions to push the UNGA to approve agendas covering all aspects of international life. It has also fully participated in proposing and planning essential decisions for the world.

During the last term, Viet Nam and several countries have proposed initiatives and solutions on many major UN issues, such as upholding international marine law and law of the sea, water security, and responsibility to prevent and control crimes against humanity, to name but a few.

Besides, the country also joined the preparation of a report of the UN Secretary-General on the organization's activities, a report from the International Court of Justice (ICJ), and a report from the International Criminal Court (ICC).
