On June 11, President Triet welcomed the Saudi Arabian minister’s working visit, saying it was a springboard for the two countries to usher in a new stage of bilateral ties. “Ministries and industries from the two countries should increase the exchange of visits so as to work out concrete programmes of cooperation,” said the State leader, emphasizing on energy, mining and agriculture.
“Vietnam respects Saudi Arabia ’s position in the Middle-East and looks forwards to developing friendship and comprehensive cooperation with the country,” Triet concluded.
His view was shared by the Saudi Arabian Minister, who said his country is rich in energy and minerals while Vietnam has potential in labour forces and agriculture so the two countries can supplement each other through their cooperation.
Mr.Ali Ibrahim Al Naimi sounded satisfied at the results of his working sessions with the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the National Oil and Gas Group of Vietnam (PetroVietnam), saying the two parties have got some ideas on models of bilateral cooperation from these meetings./.
