During the event, Vietnamese Ambassador to Egypt Tran Thanh Cong also met the local media to introduce the culture and cuisine, achievements in the socio-economic development of Vietnam and important milestones in Vietnam-Egypt relations.
The ambassador emphasized that the 75th National Day of Vietnam coincided with the 57th anniversary of Vietnam-Egypt diplomatic relations, while recalling the historical visit to Vietnam by President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi in 2017, during which more than 20 cooperation agreements in fields of economy, education and collaboration among localities were signed.
According to him, Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Pham Binh Minh recently held phone talks with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry to discuss cooperation measures amidst the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and seek new development orientations for the bilateral partnership.
Mr. Tran Thanh Cong hoped that in the future, the two sides will enjoy more fruitful cooperation thanks to the implementation of commitments they made in 2017 and 2018./.
