Deputy PM Minh noted with pleasure the strong growth in the Vietnam-Chile comprehensive partnership over recent years, shown through the outcomes of the high-level visits of the two countries’ leaders, including the recent visit to Chile by Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue in July.
For his part, the Chilean FM congratulated Vietnam for its successful hosting of the WEF ASEAN 2018.
He affirmed that Chile wants to boost its relations with Vietnam, as well as ASEAN member countries in general. He suggested that the two sides reinforce and promote progress in trade cooperation, while expanding investment collaboration between the two countries.
The two sides agreed to increase the exchange of high-level delegations; bolster economic, trade, and investment ties; while supporting small and medium-sized enterprises in accessing each other’s market; and enhancing people-to-people exchanges.
They pledged to cooperate closely at multilateral forums, especially the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum, and in the process of approving and implementing the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
