Braverman, former Minister of Minority Affairs, former Chairman of the Finance Committee and former Chairman of the Economic Affairs Committee of Israel, was in Vietnam to take part in cooperation activities of the Israeli Embassy and the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics.
Speaking at the reception, Deputy PM Hue said the Vietnamese Party and State attach importance to self-reliance to ensure macro-economic stability and sustainable development.
He said as Vietnam and Israel have complementary economic structures, they can cooperate with each other for common development. He noted that the two Governments are directing ministries and sectors to promote the building of a bilateral free trade agreement to enhance partnerships.
Welcoming the guest’s initiative to hold an agricultural development cooperation forum in Vietnam, Hue said he will assign the Foreign Ministry, the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development to organise the event.
