He noted that the visits reflected the importance both sides attach to their relations and helped consolidate Vietnam’s diplomatic position, expand its network of trusted partners, and strengthen ties with Europe at both bilateral and regional levels.
A notable outcome was the elevation of Vietnam-Denmark relations to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, with economic, trade, and investment cooperation serving as key pillars.
With the EU, the two sides agreed to broaden cooperation by promoting closer links among research institutions, universities, and businesses; conducting joint research and developing technologies and products; and deepening participation in value chains and supply chains. Vietnam and Belgium agreed on a vision of elevating bilateral relations to a Strategic Partnership.
Minister Trung said that during the visits, a number of European businesses discussed plans and projects they intend to implement in Vietnam, with a combined initial value of approximately 20 billion euros.
