President Quang used the occasion to thank Belarusian authorities and competent agencies for their support for the Vietnamese community, helping them stabilize their life in the host country. 

He called on the Belarusian Government to create more favourable conditions for the entry and exit of the Vietnamese to and from Belarus.
