Ambassador Giang also reiterated Việt Nam's commitment to upholding the role and rights of women and international peace and security, saying that Vietnamese women hold many leadership positions in the country, and play an important role in economic development, and actively contribute to international issues, including participating in UN peacekeeping operations.
