Cambodia, Vietnam Strengthen Defence Ties as Defence Minister Tea Seiha Begins Official Visit
PHNOM PENH — Oct. 13, 2026: Vietnamese Prime Minister Le Minh Hung received General Tea Seiha, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence of Cambodia, at the Government Headquarters in Hanoi on the morning of Oct. 13, 2026, as part of the Cambodian defence chief's official visit to Vietnam.
General Tea Seiha is scheduled to visit Vietnam officially from Oct. 13 to 15, 2026, attend the annual meeting of the three defence ministers, and witness a joint civil defence exercise by the armed forces of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos to respond to a super typhoon.
Earlier on Tuesday, the high-level military delegation of Cambodia's Ministry of National Defence laid wreaths at the Monument to National Heroes to pay tribute to fallen soldiers. The delegation then proceeded to lay wreaths at the Mausoleum of President Ho Chi Minh in Hanoi, the capital of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
The three-day visit underscores continued defence cooperation between Cambodia and Vietnam, alongside the two countries' recent signing of six bilateral agreements covering drug treatment, education, heritage preservation, security and trade.
