Meeting with visiting Politburo member and permanent member of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee’s Secretariat Le Hong Anh on October 14, the PM highly valued Vietnam’s major socio-economic achievements and said the two countries have great prospects for further collaboration.
He suggested both sides carry out co-operation programmes in education-training, culture and tourism, thus helping foster their traditional relations.
He also urged the establishment of an inter-governmental committee on economic-trade and scientific-technological co-operation which was agreed on by the two countries’ leaders.
At a reception for the Vietnamese official, Speaker of the Azerbaijani Parliament Ogtay Osadov said Azerbaijan always treasures its relations with Asian-Pacific nations, including Vietnam, expressing his hope for the country’s increasing growth and status in the region and the world at large.
Although bilateral economic-trade ties have witnessed observable strides over the past years, they is still great potential for future growth, he added, noting that the setting up of friendship parliamentarians’ groups in the two countries will lay a firm foundation for strengthening legislative affiliation.
