During the meeting, Associate Professor Hoang Anh Tuan highly appreciated Professor Philippe Le Prestre's visit within the framework of a series of events leading up to the 45th anniversary of Vietnam-Canada relations. Through an introduction to the main aspects of their training activities, the two universities discovered many similarities, especially in the fields of International Relations and Political Science.

Professor Philippe also shared information about his research and teaching activities at Laval University. Following this, Associate Professor Hoang Anh Tuan extended an invitation for him to give guest lectures to students, as well as to engage in academic exchanges with faculty members of the International Studies and Political Science departments through workshops and seminars at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities.
