To continue advancing the bilateral relations in a practical manner, the two leaders agreed on the need to coordinate together closely in implementing major cooperation orientations, with priority given to increasing the exchange of all-level visits.
They agreed to direct relevant ministries and agencies to promptly and effectively carry out agreements, particularly the action plan on the implementation of the strategic partnership for 2019 - 2023.
To create momentum for economic recovery, the two leaders shared the view on the necessity to promote two-way trade in a more balanced direction.
