Vietnam applauds the 132nd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union
(IPU-132)’s intention of adopting a resolution on cyber warfare – a
serious threat to world peace and security, said National Assembly Vice
Chairman Huynh Ngoc Son.

Son addressed a workshop themed
“Parliaments in the prevention of cyber warfare’s threats to world peace
and security” in Hanoi on January 28.

Speeches delivered at the event focused on discussing issues relating to
information safety, network security and cyber warfare.

Participants proposed Vietnam ’s State agencies, international
organisations and parliaments boost cooperation in combating cyber
warfare, which has become a common concern of any nations and
organisations.

They also gave opinions on the content of the cyber warfare resolution.

In Vietnam, in recent years, thousands of websites, including those
belonging to State agencies, have been attacked intentionally, causing
total losses of up to thousands of billion VND.

The 132nd Assembly of the IPU is scheduled to take place from March 28
to April 1 in Hanoi under the theme “Sustainable Development Goals:
Turning Words into Actions”.-VNA
