Delegates at the recently-held 4th meeting of the Vietnam-European Union (EU) Joint Committee to implement the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) in Brussels proposed several specific measures to strengthen bilateral cooperation in trade, investment, finance, development cooperation, climate change response, logistics and agriculture.

Vietnamese deputy minister of foreign Affairs Le Thi Thu Hang affirmed that Vietnam supports the strengthening of the ASEAN-EU strategic partnership, with priority given to stepping up trade-investment cooperation, responding to global climate challenges, the environment, natural disasters, epidemics, contributing to green and sustainable development, and sub-regional development cooperation.

The EU proposed that the two sides continue to boost cooperation in key areas, including trade and investment, while expanding cooperation in new areas like tax, biodiversity conservation, global plastic waste treatment, labour and illegal migration prevention, media outlets in Vietnam reported.

The EU highly valued Vietnam's impressive achievements in socio-economic development and international integration.
