Sengupta and his entourage are in Vietnam to attend the 10th Vietnam-India
People’s Friendship Festival.
At the meeting, Thinh spoke highly of the role of people-to-people exchange in
enhancing the friendship between the two countries, and lauded efforts by the
Vietnam Union of Friendship Organisations, the Vietnam-India Friendship
Association and the AIPSO in organising the festival.
The official expressed her hope that these organisations will make more
contributions to materialising the Vietnam-India comprehensive strategic
partnership, and consolidating and developing the bilateral friendship and
cooperation.
Vietnam and India became strategic partners in 2007 and elevated their
relationship to a comprehensive strategic partnership in 2016, Thinh noted,
adding that India is one of Vietnam’s 10 biggest trade partners while Vietnam is
one of the top priority partners in India’s Act East policy. She also expressed
her delight at the all-round development of the bilateral friendship.
In reply, Sengupta said the bilateral cooperation is developing fruitfully in
all spheres, ranging from economy, trade and investment to national defence and
security, science, education, culture, tourism and agriculture.
India always attaches importance to relations with Vietnam, the guest said,
expressing his hope that the two countries will step up people-to-people
exchange in the time ahead in order to enhance solidarity and equality, and
create favourable conditions for cultural and social development.
