On Tuesday, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc visited Gazprom , one of the largest oil and gas companies in Russia. He emphasized that energy cooperation is one of the major pillars of the Vietnam-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership. Mr. Phuc added that the Vietnamese Government always creates the best possible conditions for Russian businesses, including Gazprom, to operate in Vietnam.
