The European nation stands ready to share its technologies, support the establishment of new enterprises, and build joint ventures manufacturing technical products in Viet Nam and boost the supply of foodstuffs and fertilisers for the Southeast Asian nation, he added.

Belarusian President Lukashenko voiced his delight at Viet Nam’s economic growth and maintenance of a peaceful and stable environment for development amid uncertainties in the region and the world.

He informed the Vietnamese ambassador that Belarusian Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko would visit Viet Nam in the coming time to discuss bilateral cooperation in recent years and in the future, affirming that Viet Nam will always be a friend of Belarus.
