A special concert was held in the presence of Party General Secretary To Lam and his spouse at the University of Helsinki on October 21 evening (local time), part of the Vietnamese leader’s official visit to Finland.

Finland regards Viet Nam not only as a dynamic and rapidly developing market but also as a partner in fostering smart, green, and sustainable growth, said Finnish Minister of Employment Matias Marttinen.

General Secretary To Lam affirmed that Viet Nam always treasures its traditional friendship with Finland and appreciates Finland’s support for Viet Nam in its post-war national reconstruction and development. He expressed his hope that Finland will continue to be a reliable partner and companion in Viet Nam’s new era of development.

Viet Nam highly values its longstanding partnership with Finland, Party General Secretary To Lam stressed, believing that this visit will open up a new chapter of bilateral relations, contributing to peace, stability, and development in the regions and the world.

The Finnish Ambassador to Viet Nam identified information technology, cybersecurity, clean energy, the circular economy, water management, and medical technology as areas through which many Finnish companies can contribute to Viet Nam's economic growth and welfare.

The upcoming official visit to Finland by Party General Secretary To Lam and his spouse, from October 20 to 22, symbolises a new era of bilateral cooperation rooted in innovation, knowledge, and green development, helping to elevate relations to a deeper and more comprehensive level, Vietnamese Ambassador to Finland Pham Thi Thanh Binh told the Viet Nam News Agency.
