Chinh said that Viet Nam always follows and is delighted at the socio-economic achievements that Poland has recorded over the years, affirming that it attaches great importance to the traditional friendship and multifaceted cooperation with the European country and always remembers the valuable support and assistance that Poland provided Viet Nam during its struggle for national construction and defence.
PM Chinh thanked Poland for supporting Vietnamese citizens victimised by the shopping centre fire in Warsaw in May.
The two sides shared the delight at the positive development of the Viet Nam-Poland relationship in many areas. Heading to the 75th anniversary of bilateral diplomatic relations (1950-2025), they agreed to promote bilateral relations to a new height in the coming time.
PM Chinh proposed that the two countries continue beefing up their partnership through strengthening the exchange of delegations at all levels, especially the high level, increasing visits of officials via the Party channel, and promoting economic, trade, investment, cultural cooperation and people-to-people exchange.
He pledged that Viet Nam will provide optimal conditions for the import of goods of Poland’s strengths such as machineries and ships.
The two sides should speed up the signing of a loan agreement for the project of building six new offshore search and rescue ships for which the Polish Government has committed to granting preferential credit to Viet Nam, said the leader, adding that Viet Nam hopes for Poland’s support in human resources training in the fields of basic training and shipbuilding.
PM Chinh suggested that Poland continue to create favourable conditions for the Vietnamese community in Poland to settle down, integrate well into the host society, and actively contribute to the socio-economic development of Poland and the sound traditional friendship between Viet Nam and Poland.
For his part, Polish President Andrzej Duda expressed his impression at Viet Nam's socio-economic achievements, underlining that Viet Nam is Poland's current biggest partner in Southeast Asia. He hailed the contributions by the Vietnamese community in Poland.
The Polish leader said he hopes Viet Nam will create favourable conditions for Polish firms to export goods to Viet Nam and strengthen cooperation with their Vietnamese peers in new areas such as renewable energy and tourism./.
