The Party General Secretary also expressed his delight at the strong and practical development of Vietnam-Japan ties in multiple fields, especially since the two countries’ leaders issued a Joint Vision Statement on bilateral relations on the occasion of the Vietnamese Party General Secretary’s visit to Japan in September 2015.

The Vietnamese Party and State always consider Japan a long-term leading partner, he stressed.

Ambassador Hiroshi Fukada, for his part, pledged to do more to strengthen bilateral relations and people’s exchanges and showed his desire to continue promoting all-around ties with Vietnam, including intensifying high-level visits, and increasing coordination in regional and global issues.
