At his meeting with President of the Chamber of Deputies Roberto Fico, Hien said the Vietnamese NA wants to further strengthen the strategic partnership between Vietnam and Italy.

Vietnam attaches great importance to the exchange of delegations, especially high-level ones between the two countries and parliaments, Hien said, adding that the Southeast Asian country is ready to share experience and coordinate closely with Italy at both regional and international forums.

He thanked the Italian parliament and government for creating favourable conditions for the Vietnamese community in Italy to settle down and integrate into the host society.

During his talks with Vice President of the Chamber of Deputies Ettore Rosato, Hien said his current visit to Italy is to promote and deepen the strategic partnership between the two countries as well as the cooperative ties between the two parliaments.

He asked the two sides to increase high-level delegation exchanges and meetings between parliamentarians in addition to sharing experience in law-building and supervision in respective countries.
