He pledged all-out efforts to fulfill duties so as to help promote the two countries’ cooperation on the basis of the sound friendship over the last nearly 50 years.

President Vella spoke highly of Vietnam’s development attainments, economic potential, and growing role and standing in the region and at multilateral forums, as well as the great strides seen in the Vietnam - EU partnership.

He recommended Vietnam and Malta capitalise on existing advantages such as the traditional friendship, the two economies’ dynamism, and the cooperation frameworks that have taken effect or are being completed so as to promote effective cooperation in potential spheres like trade, investment, labour and tourism, along with priority areas, including navigation security, climate change, technology, and innovation, on both bilateral and multilateral aspects.
