Vietnam, Belize promote bilateral ties

(VOV) -Governor-General of Belize Colville Norbert Young expressed a desire to bolster cooperation  with Vietnam at a reception for the first Vietnamese Ambassador to the country, Le Linh Lan on May 4. 

He spoke highly of Vietnamese people's bravery in their past struggles for national liberation, and reunification and the nation's economic reform achievements, and pledged his nation's support for stepping up bilateral coordination at multilateral forums. 

Meeting with Belizean Prime Minister Dean O.Barrow and Minister of Public Service, Elections and Boundaries Charles Gibson, the two sides discussed potential and opportunities for stronger economic and trade cooperation. 

Ambassador Lan said that Belize’s recognition of Vietnam’s market economy status in 2015 will help expand bilateral ties.

PM Barrow concurred to consider the proposal within this year as the two countries are celebrating 20 years of diplomatic ties.
