“Vietnam welcomes the ceasefire agreement reached on April 7, 2026, between the United States and Iran, an important step toward reducing tensions and restoring peace, stability, security, and safety in the Middle East.

Vietnam calls on all parties to continue exercising restraint, act responsibly, and avoid complicating the situation; respect the independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of states; ensure the security and safety of civilians and civilian infrastructure, as well as the safety and freedom of navigation in the region; and actively engage in dialogue to seek sustainable peaceful solutions to differences on the basis of the fundamental principles of international law and the UN Charter, for the benefit of all parties and for peace, stability, cooperation, and development in the region and the world.”

The ceasefire agreement comes amid escalating tensions related to maritime security and the risk of a broader conflict in the Gulf region. The parties’ agreement to temporarily suspend military activities is considered a necessary step to facilitate dialogue and subsequent diplomatic efforts.
