A unified global environmental cooperation ecosystem is an important step in uniting nations for the well-being of the planet and building a harmonious and respectful relationship with resources. Modern ecological technology and environmental awareness in shaping business strategies are key priorities to promote sustainable environmental management, improve people's quality of life and develop an environmental culture.

How can we move from advanced technological solutions for the benefit of humanity to active participation in the conservation of nature as a source of life and inspiration? How can science , business and government unite to mitigate global environmental challenges for the benefit of people and the environment? That was the discussion content at the session “International Ecosystem: Integration into a Green Future” that the delegation of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST) led by Vice President, Professor - Academician Le Truong Giang attended and was invited as a speaker.

According to a VNA correspondent in Moscow, discussing with leaders of many countries and international organizations, including Belarusian Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Sergey Maslyak, Vice President of the Russian Academy of Sciences Stepan Kalmykov, Cuban Deputy Minister of Science, Technology and Environment José Fidel Santana Nuñez, Professor - Academician Le Truong Giang emphasized the importance of international cooperation in the field of research and development of energy technology; including the new field of fusion energy - an optimal clean energy source but requiring focused research and resources in large cross-border projects. Vietnam called for starting cooperation now, instead of waiting, to prepare for the future and affirmed that the close connection between science - state - business will be the key: science provides evidence and innovation, the state issues policies, and businesses take the lead in application.

On this basis, Vietnam proposed an initiative to build a multilateral research organization on green energy, bringing together partners such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR), the Russian State Nuclear Energy Corporation Rosatom, and research units around the world such as the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, etc., to mobilize resources, share expertise and train a generation of young scientists.

In addition, the Vice President of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology also proposed expanding cooperation in human resource training, especially in nuclear research, radiation safety and through cooperation between universities of Vietnam and the Russian Federation in the coming time, aiming to expand universities in the region and the world, thereby preparing resources for the green and clean development path in the future. The speech of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology received attention from international friends, contributing to affirming Vietnam's strong commitment to accompanying the international community in building a green, safe and sustainable energy future.

Speaking to VNA reporters in Russia, Professor and Academician Le Truong Giang affirmed that participating in this prestigious forum is a valuable opportunity for Vietnamese scientists. Right from the first steps in developing nuclear energy, Vietnam has determined to put safety first, and considered this the focus of research in discussions and working sessions with partners at the forum. With the determination to implement important resolutions of the Politburo on energy, VAST leaders consider international cooperation an important task to ensure the autonomy of Vietnamese scientists in this new energy field for the country.
