President Nguyen Xuan Phuc on July 21 sent a message of congratulations to José Pedro Castillo Terrones on his election as President of Peru for 2021-2026 tenure.

Vietnam and Peru established diplomatic ties on November 14, 1994.

Trade between Vietnam and Peru increased from US$284.96 million in 2014 to US$422.73 million in 2019.

Last year, the value stood at only US$391.17 million due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the bilateral trade grew strongly in the first half of this year to reach US$278.27 million, up 78.7% year-on-year.
