Both Ambassador Vinh and Gosar agreed that relations between the two countries as well as between Vietnamese localities and Arizona State have been developing strongly and there is still lot of potential for cooperation, especially in green and renewable energy.
Gosar recalled his sound memories and profound impressions during his visit to Vietnam in late 2017.
Ambassador Vinh said that Vietnam hopes to welcome more US congressmen, thus contributing to the development of Vietnam-US ties.
A day earlier, Ambassador Vinh met with Assistant Secretary of Defence Randall Schriver.
The two officials lauded the growing relationship between the two countries over the past year, especially the successful visit to the US by Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc in May 2017 and the Vietnam visit by US President Donald Trump and his attendance in the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in November 2017.
Ambassador Vinh and Schriver shared the hope that in 2018, the two sides will continue exchanging delegations at all levels and enhance the bilateral cooperation in various fields, including security and defence.
