German State Secretary Markus Ederer made the comments when being received by Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Pham Binh Minh in Hanoi on June 17.
At the meeting, both sides agreed to coordinate with each other in organising activities to celebrate the 40th anniversary of bilateral diplomatic ties which will come next year and implementing the two countries’ main projects.
Viet Nam welcomes Germany’s plan to organise the 14th Asia-Pacific Conference of German Business in Ho Chi Minh City in November and pledges to support the German side in this work, Minh said.
Both host and guest agreed to work closely at multilateral forums and international organisations. Germany vows to help Viet Nam strengthen its comprehensive ties with the European Union, and support the EU’s recognition of Viet Nam’s market economy at the same time with the completion of negotiations on a free trade agreement between Viet Nam and the bloc.
The German side voiced support to Viet Nam’s stance of solving disputes in the East Sea peacefully in respect for international law, including the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and objection to unilateral acts that can complicate the East Sea situation.-VNA
