Party General Secretary and President To Lam had a meeting with Chairman of the ruling Mongolian People's Party (MPP) and Prime Minister Luvsannamsrain Oyun-Erdene in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar on September 30, as part of his ongoing state visit to the East Asian country.
Both leaders expressed their delight at the elevation of bilateral ties to a comprehensive partnership level during Lam’s visit.
They agreed to further enhance political trust by maintaining the exchange of all-level delegations, step up substantial and mutually beneficial cooperation to create a significant shift in economic, trade, and investment relations, and further uphold the role of the Vietnam-Mongolia Inter-Governmental Committee.
They will actively encourage firms to join trade promotion programs and business connectivity initiatives in each country, aiming for stable growth in trade cooperation. The leaders stressed the importance of deepening people-to-people exchanges, as well as cultural and educational collaboration, while promoting broader joint work in labor, sci-tech, information and communications.
Lam affirmed Vietnam's consistent policy of valuing cooperation with Mongolia and expressed his wish to develop bilateral ties in an increasingly substantive, effective and long-term manner, in line with the interest, potential and need of both nations.
He praised the signing of a new cooperation document between the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) and the MPP, which laid a foundation to advance party-to-party relations in the future.
On the occasion, Lam thanked the Mongolian Government and people for their support of USD 200,000 to help locals of northern Vietnam recover from the damage caused by recent Typhoon Yagi.
PM Oyun-Erdene congratulated Vietnam on its socio-economic achievements and increasingly important position and role in the region and the world. He affirmed that strengthening comprehensive and extensive cooperation with Vietnam is a top priority of Mongolia's foreign policy in the region.
He wished to further expand cooperation with Vietnam in various fields, including politics, national defense-security, economy-trade, education, sci-tech, transportation, logistics, culture, sports, tourism, and people-to-people exchanges, as well as at multilateral forums and mechanisms that match bilateral comprehensive partnership.- (VNA/VLLF)
