The global media on October 18 continued to cover Vietnam's UN Security Council non-permanent membership, saying this new role will be an impetus to lift Vietnam to new heights on the international arena.
The Washington Post stressed that politicians from the US's Democratic and Republican parties advocated Vietnam's election as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) for the 2008-2009 term and applauded efforts to raise bilateral relations with Vietnam. http://www.nhandan.com.vn/english/news/191007/domestic_g.htm
