Ambassador Vu called on the Vietnamese community to continue following regulations and warnings from the German Government and strengthen solidarity to overcome the crisis.
He reminded people that those exhibiting symptoms like high fever or shortness of breath should promptly visit a hospital for treatment.
He hopes that associations and businesses will continue to publicise the regulations the German Government has introduced.
The embassy had prepared a series of events to celebrate the 45th anniversary of diplomatic ties between Vietnam and Germany, he explained, but the pandemic has forced the cancellation of all large gatherings.
The embassy has regularly updated information from the German and Vietnamese Governments, especially regarding entry-exit regulations, on the websites of the embassy and the Consulate General.
Since Germany and the EU are tightening border controls and many airlines have cancelled flights, the embassy has supported Vietnamese citizens seeking to return home. No Vietnamese citizens have been stranded at German airports, he added./.
