In order to raise bilateral ties to a new height, both leaders agreed to increase the exchange of high-level visits as well as those at ministerial, local and business levels, and hasten the signing of cooperation agreements in diverse areas, especially in telecommunications and oil and gas.
The two sides pledged to create the best conditions for the two countries’ businesses to access Southeast Asian and Latin American markets.
On regional and global issues of shared concern, the Vietnamese President stressed the importance of strengthening collaboration to maintain an environment of peace and stability for development.
The two leaders expressed their satisfaction with the increasingly effective coordination between the two nations at regional and global mechanisms such as the APEC, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Forum for East Asia-Latin America Cooperation (FEALAC).
President Quang suggested joint work to be continued to implement a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on cooperation within the APEC framework, thereby ensuring the success of the APEC Peru Year 2016 and APEC Vietnam Year 2017.
After the talks, the two Presidents witnessed the signing of three cooperation deals, including an MoU on fishing development, a cultural cooperation agreement and another one on the control of psychotropic substances, drugs and drug precursors.
