Vietnamese Minister of Public Security General Tran Dai Quang is paying a working visit to India at an invitation of Minister of Home Affairs Sushilkumar Shinde.
At a meeting with Indian Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid on October 29, Minister Quang affirmed that the Vietnamese people are thankful for the valuable support of the Indian Government and people during the country’s past struggle for liberation and its national construction, defence and development. He stated Vietnam always defines India as a great and faithful friend.
Quang said the Vietnamese Government treasures India’s “Look East” policy, which considers ASEAN an extremely important pillar and strongly supports the bloc’s central role, adding that he highly valued the country’s positive and effective contributions to helping build an ASEAN Community by 2015, implementing the ASEAN Connectivity Initiative and developing the Mekong sub-region cooperation.
He declared that Vietnam is willing to strengthen its comprehensive partnership with India and will create all possible conditions for Indian businesses to invest in Vietnam, especially in the fields where they are strongest.
The guest also expressed his hope that Minister Salman Khurshid will pay attention to developing the two ministries’ ties to a new height, contributing to deepening the traditional friendship and strategic partnership between Vietnam and India for the peace, stability and interests of the two peoples.
Minister Khurshid thanked Vietnam for creating favourable conditions for Indian investors recently, especially in oil and gas exploration and exploitation, and solar energy.
He said he hoped that the two countries continue intensifying cooperation in software production technology, information security and safety, banking, and transport infrastructure, as well as opening more direct air routes.-VNA
