Hano: Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on December 8 morning hosted a welcome ceremony for his Belarusian counterpart Roman Golovchenko who is paying an official visit to Vietnam from December 6-9.
This is the first time PM Golovchenko has visited Vietnam since he took office in 2020. It takes place at a time when the two countries are celebrating the 31st founding anniversary of their diplomatic relations (1992 – 2023) and the 66th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh’s first visit to Minsk (1957 – 2023).
At the welcome ceremony, the two leaders inspected the guard of honour, and visited a photo exhibition featuring the land and people of Vietnam and Belarus, and their good relations, jointly held by the Government Office and the Vietnam News Agency (VNA). After that, the PMs held talks.
While in Vietnam, PM Golovchenko is also scheduled to meet high-ranking leaders of the Vietnamese Party and State to exchange views on ways to enhance the bilateral relationship in the time ahead, making it more intensive, extensive, practical and effective, along with other issues of shared concern. He will also visit some Vietnamese localities.
