In the joint vision statement released following the talks, the two sides reiterated their determination to further strengthen the bilateral comprehensive strategic partnership until 2030.


The two sides will coordinate with each other to guarantee security, safety, and freedom of navigation and overflight, and unimpeded trade. They support self-restraint, no use or threats to use force, and peaceful settlement of disputes among relevant sides in line with the common principles and standards of international law, including the principles in the UN Charter and the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).

Vietnam and Russia support the full and effective implementation of the 2002 Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the East Sea and welcome efforts to soon adopt a code of conduct in the waters.

In their meetings with the Vietnamese leader, other Russian leaders agreed that the visit has generated a new motivation for the development of bilateral ties, and its success will contribute to opening up a new period of strong, comprehensive and long-term growth of the relationship between the two countries.
