Vietnam has taken over the rotating chairmanship of the ASEAN Committee in Copenhagen for the next year, marking a new phase in ASEAN\u2019s diplomatic coordination in Denmark, Viet Nam News reports.<\/a><\/p>\n

The handover took place during a ceremony at the Thai Embassy in Copenhagen, attended by diplomats from ASEAN countries and representatives from the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, businesses, and institutions.<\/p>\n

Vietnam said its chairmanship will focus on strengthening ASEAN\u2019s visibility in Denmark and expanding cooperation between ASEAN member states and Danish partners.<\/p>\n

The transition comes at a time of growing ties, as Denmark has recently become a Sectoral Dialogue Partner of ASEAN, while Timor-Leste joined the bloc as its newest member in 2025.<\/p>\n

On the same occasion, ASEAN embassies in Denmark jointly hosted a seminar on future cooperation between ASEAN and Denmark, highlighting areas such as green transition, digital innovation, and sustainable development.<\/p>\n

Vietnam\u2019s ambassador Nguy\u1ec5n L\u00ea Thanh stressed the importance of unity within ASEAN and said the group must adapt to global challenges, including economic shifts, technological change, and geopolitical competition.<\/p>\n

She also pointed to strong potential for deeper ASEAN\u2013Denmark cooperation in areas linked to sustainability and innovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Vietnamese Ambassador to Denmark Nguy\u1ec5n L\u00ea Thanh receives the ASEAN flag from Thai Ambassador Suphanvasa Chotikajan Tang.
