Vietnam Russia

Russia is the sixth-largest source market for Vietnam’s tourism.

A long-standing relationship of over 70 years and high political trust between the two would open up a new chapter for cooperation.

High political trust is seen as the foundation to bolster bilateral cooperation, for which two countries would continue to improve cooperation mechanisms.

Switzerland is one of the few countries having provided official development assistance (ODA) for Vietnam over the past three decades while Russia was among the first countries establishing ties with Hanoi.

The two countries have determined to expand their bilateral ties in the new historical conditions.

Priceless support in the past is said to be the treasury for the further Vietnam-Russia relationship in which defence is one of pillars.
