During the meeting, Deputy Foreign Minister Ngoc spoke highly of the Honourary Consul’s effective support for and close coordination with the Vietnamese Embassy in Argentina in recent times, significantly contributing to maintaining and stepping up the bilateral relations in the context that Vietnam has yet to set up a representative office in Paraguay.
He affirmed that the visit by the Vietnamese National Assembly Chairman to Latin America aims to deliver a message that Vietnam attaches great importance to and wishes to further strengthen relations with regional countries, including Paraguay.
In addition to the good political and diplomatic ties, Vietnam wants to expand collaboration in economy, trade, investment, culture, and tourism as well as people-to-people exchange with Paraguay, he said, adding the two sides should discuss specific measures to promote connections between businesses of the two countries.
He suggested the Honourary Consul continue to serve as a bridge connecting enterprises of the two nations, and expanding import-export markets and investment links on the basis of the two sides’ strengths.
Honourary Consul Maria Del Carmen Perez briefed on her activities and efforts, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, to connect Paraguayan businesses with Vietnamese partners.
