Expressing his satisfaction with the progress in bilateral relations, especially in economic and trade areas, he affirmed that Vietnam always treasures multifaceted cooperation with Colombia in its policy of developing ties with the Latin American region. He proposed that both sides enhance delegation exchanges at various levels, and implement mechanisms on political consultation at the deputy foreign minister level and joint economic commission to review and agree on measures to strengthen bilateral relations, while continuing to closely coordinate and support each other at international organisations and multilateral forums.

For his part, the Colombian official expressed his pleasure at visiting Vietnam for the first time, and affirmed that Colombia considers Vietnam a top partner in Southeast Asia, and hopes to work with Vietnam - a bridge that helps promote relations between the Latin American and Asia-Pacific regions.

The Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to closely coordinate with the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to implement the goals and directions for developing relations as proposed by Deputy PM and FM Son.

On this occasion, both sides agreed to enhance experience exchanges and expand cooperation in energy transition, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, response to such challenges as migration, transnational crime, cybersecurity, and climate change./.
