Speaking at the meeting, the Ambassador said that the relationship between Vietnam and Germany is growing in all fields, especially after the visit to Vietnam last November by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. That is a good premise for the two countries, as well as between Cottbus and Vietnamese localities, to continue promoting cooperation.

Minh said that he expects Cottbus will consider twinning with a Vietnamese city, thereby enhancing cooperation and people-to-people exchanges. In addition, the two sides can also promote cooperation in the field of higher education and vocational training, including nursing.
