Stuart hailed Vietnam’s commitments made at the COP26, stressing the UK’s readiness to assist the country in this regard.

Stuart expected both sides to further bilateral relations in economy, trade, and investment for mutual benefits.

“Vietnam welcomes the economic and trade cooperation between the UK and the ASEAN region,” Anh noted and said the country is ready to share its CPTPP information and accession with the UK.
