On Sunday morning, President Quang and his wife visited the Nehru Memorial Museum and met with Indian politicians, researchers, scholars, and students. He said Vietnam and India need to strengthen economic-trade connectivity and consider it a development momentum of their comprehensive strategic partnership: “It’s important to boost marine cooperation, a key area for bilateral ties and for peace, stability, and development in Indo-Pacific and Asia.
