They agreed to convene the next session of the Intergovernmental Committee to promote economic, trade, and investment cooperation. Additionally, they committed to the effective implementation of existing agreements, particularly in agriculture, oil and gas, and telecommunications, while exploring opportunities for collaboration in new and promising spheres.
The leaders also concurred to strengthen cultural exchange and youth engagement between the two countries and organise meaningful activities to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the diplomatic relations (1989–2024).
For regional and international matters, including ensuring security, safety, and freedom of navigation and overflight, and the East Sea issue, they agreed to enhance coordination and mutual support at international organisations and multilateral forums.
On this occasion, President Maduro asked PM Chinh to convey his invitation to President Luong Cuong and other high-ranking Vietnamese leaders to soon visit Venezuela. PM Chinh also conveyed the invitation from President Cuong to President Maduro to visit Vietnam in the near future.
