Denmark Supports Vietnam's Priorities for Sustainable Development

The discussion is in line with Vietnam's development priorities and with the comprehensive partnership and green strategic partnership between the two countries in general.

The Vietnamese diplomat stated that bilateral cooperation is developing extensively and effectively in all fields, especially in the strategic fields of climate and the environment. The cooperation is demonstrated through important cooperation frameworks such as the strategic partnership in the fields of climate change, energy, the environment, and green growth (2011), the comprehensive partnership (2013), and the green strategic partnership (2023), thus creating an important foundation for bringing the relationship to a new level.

He also suggested the Danish Parliament and Government continue creating favorable conditions for the Vietnamese community in Denmark to play a key role as an important bridge in the friendship between the two countries. The two leaders agreed to strengthen high-level delegation exchanges, establish a Friendship Parliamentarians’ Group, and share experiences in legislative affairs and supervision, Vietnamplus reported.

Ha conveyed an invitation from National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man to the Danish Parliament Speaker to visit Vietnam. The host gladly accepted the invitation.
