PM Phuc urged the two countries to increase exchanging delegations at all levels and take many measures to enhance cooperation in all aspects while creating optimal conditions for each other’s businesses to promote trade, exchange delegations, and participate in fairs and exhibitions held in their countries.

The Government chief also asked Liberia to recognize the full market economy status of Viet Nam.

FM Kamara, who is on her first visit to Viet Nam since the two countries established diplomatic ties in June last year, expressed her admiration for Viet Nam’s struggle for national independence and development efforts.

She informed the host about the outcomes of her talks with Deputy PM, FM Pham Binh Minh earlier on the same day, notably the signing of an agreement on visa exemption for holders of diplomatic and official passports, the first ever agreement signed between the two countries./.
