VIENTIANE, Aug 31 (Vientiane Times/ANN): Laos and the United States have recorded greater fruitful cooperation after the two sides elevated their bilateral relations to new heights, a US diplomat has said.
In 2016, former President Bounnhang Vorachit and then US President Barack Obama agreed to elevate bilateral relations to a comprehensive partnership, starting a new era of cooperation, when Mr Obama visited Laos that year. This year Laos and the United States are celebrating the 5th anniversary of their comprehensive partnership and 66th year of diplomatic ties, with many greater achievements recorded.
