The bilateral meeting between Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva coincided with the 35th anniversary of diplomatic ties (1989-2024) and the 17th anniversary of their Comprehensive Partnership (2007-2024).
The Strategic Partnership reflects high political trust and strong determination by both governments to deepen cooperation and deliver tangible benefits for their peoples. This relationship supports peace, stability, and development in their respective regions and globally.
As Vietnam’s first Strategic Partnership in South America, this milestone signifies Vietnam’s progress in expanding cooperation with Latin America, a region with significant potential. This move aligns with Vietnam’s goals of diversifying markets and supply chains.
The new framework will enable close collaboration on global issues like poverty reduction, sustainable development, climate change, and enhanced ASEAN-South America connectivity.
This historic visit marked the first by a high-ranking Vietnamese leader, reflecting Vietnam’s commitment to strengthening ties with the Dominican Republic ahead of the 20th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2025.
During talks with Dominican President Luis Abinader Corona, both sides issued a joint statement affirming their governments’ resolve to enhance bilateral solidarity, friendship, and cooperation.
The visit set the stage for expanding and deepening collaboration in various fields, contributing to each country’s development and global peace and stability.
Both nations will:
Increase high-level exchanges and institutional cooperation.
Promote bilateral agreements in trade, investment, culture, education, and tourism.
Expedite negotiations on a free trade agreement, investment protection agreement, and visa exemption for ordinary passports.
Prime Minister Chinh extended an invitation for President Luis Abinader Corona to visit Vietnam in 2025, commemorating 20 years of diplomatic ties.
