HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam and Mozambique can continue to explore and expand their relations in both traditional and new areas of Việt Nam’s strengths and Mozambique's interest, Vietnamese Ambassador to Mozambique Phạm Hoàng Kim told the media ahead of a coming visit to the country by Vice President Võ Thị Ánh Xuân.
Highlighting the significance of the visit, set to take place next week, the ambassador said that it takes place in the context of Mozambique prioritizing development towards modernising the industry, attracting foreign investment capital and improving social life to create momentum for the country’s general election in 2024.
Moreover, the country is taking on the role of non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for the 2023-24 term, affirming it as a responsible member to regional and international issues.
“This is a decisive moment for Việt Nam and Mozambique, on the basis of good political relations, to continue to explore and expand relations from traditional areas of cooperation such as agriculture, education, healthcare to new areas like digital transformation, minerals, civil industry, agricultural processing, construction, energy, and infrastructure,” he said.
During the visit, Xuân will meet leaders of Mozambique and local business representatives, which offer opportunities for the two sides to review the implementation of cooperative activities and propose measures to strengthen their multifaceted collaboration, Kim said, noting the Vice President’s visit will continue to affirm the good traditional friendship between Việt Nam and Mozambique.
With the important role and increasing position of Mozambique in southern Africa and Việt Nam in Southeast Asia, the potential for cooperation between the two countries in the coming time is huge, especially in economy and trade, according to Kim.
Mozambique has strengths in natural resources, fisheries and competitive labour while Việt Nam boasts advantages in agriculture, handicrafts, fisheries, and a hard-working workforce.
The complementary economies, the regular exchange of high-level delegations, and enhanced cooperation between localities and businesses are favourable factors for Việt Nam-Mozambique relations to further develop, the diplomat said.
Việt Nam and Mozambique established diplomatic relations on June 25, 1975. Việt Nam opened its Embassy in Mozambique in 1976, showing its respect for and desire to develop the traditional friendship with Mozambique in particular and African countries in general.
Economic, trade and investment cooperation is the highlight of the two countries' relationship. Their trade turnover in 2022 reached over $177 million, an increase of 16 per cent compared to the year before. — VNS
