Conference highlights outlook for Vietnamese relations with India

VOV.VN - Both Vietnamese and Indian scholars and experts gathered together to take part in a conference on December 22 in Hanoi aimed at discussing achievements recorded in bilateral relations over the past 50 years and outlook for the bilateral ties in the future.

Participants agreed that both sides share a time-honoured relationship with strong connections in their history and culture.

The modern stage of bilateral ties is closely attached with the name of President Ho Chi Minh.

Former Foreign Minister Nguyen Dy Nien, the first Vietnamese diplomat deployed to India to set up the Vietnamese Consulate General, underlined that the joint relationship is a special one. Indeed, India provided Vietnam with great support during its historical struggle for independence, he said.

Participants affirmed that despite considerable instability around the world, the solidarity and strong trust between both sides has provided encouragement and confidence to overcome the current period.

Indian Ambassador to Vietnam Sandeep Arya stated that the two nations share a similarity in promoting technology with the establishment of special task forces to make full use of the technological development during the growth process in each country.

At the event, participants also highlighted the potential of co-operation between the two sides in various fields, including digital transformation.

They stressed that as both nations are striving for net-zero emissions, their experience in national energy transition can be helpful for each other, including models and policies regarding electricity auctions, power grid management, electricity purchasing, and electric vehicle use encouragement.
