PM Chinh conveyed greetings from Party General Secretary To Lam and other Vietnamese leaders to the Emir and leaders of Kuwait.
Reflecting on the warm reception extended by the Kuwaiti Emir, PM, leaders and people to the Vietnamese delegation during his official visit to the Middle Eastern country in November 2025, he suggested that both sides continue stepping up the implementation of the agreements reached then to advance the Viet Nam – Kuwait Strategic Partnership in a more substantive and effective manner.
He voiced deep concern over the ongoing Middle East conflict and expressed sympathy for people in the region on the difficulties they face.
PM Chinh also commended Kuwait’s efforts and called on Kuwait and relevant countries to continue exercising restraint, promoting de-escalation efforts and seeking peaceful solutions based on respect for international law and the United Nations Charter, while ensuring the legitimate interests of all parties. Viet Nam, he said, stands ready to contribute positively to this process.
The Kuwaiti PM, in reply, thanked his Vietnamese counterpart and high-ranking leaders for their solidarity with the Kuwaiti people amid current challenges. He also spoke highly of Viet Nam’s constructive role, goodwill and sense of responsibility in seeking peaceful solutions in the Middle East.
Amid the complex conflict, PM Chinh thanked Kuwait and requested its Government to continue ensuring the security and safety of Vietnamese citizens living there, including support for any necessary evacuation activities.
The Kuwaiti leader affirmed that his country will coordinate to guarantee the safety of Vietnamese citizens and provide necessary conditions for evacuation should the need arise.
Responding to the Vietnamese PM's proposal, he agreed to work with relevant partners to consider sustaining crude oil supply for Viet Nam and deepen energy collaboration in the coming time.
The two leaders also vowed to direct their ministries and agencies to continue translating the outcomes of PM Chinh’s official visit to Kuwait last November into concrete action, particularly in areas of shared interest and strength such as energy, food security, Halal industry and tourism.
