HÀ NỘI — Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne committed an additional 2.6 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine to Việt Nam while holding talks with Vietnamese Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính on Tuesday during her official visit to Việt Nam.

The commitment has increased Australia’s vaccine donation to Việt Nam to more than 7.8 million doses.

During their meeting, PM Chính and Foreign Minister Marise Payne agreed to continue to maintain and promote the exchange of all-level delegations while deploying existing co-operation mechanisms in various flexible forms.

They also committed to effectively implementing the Việt Nam - Australia Action Programme for the 2020-23 period and Việt Nam - Australia Enhanced Economic Engagement Strategy (EEES) in order to soon double two-way trade turnover, making the two countries one of each other's top 10 trading partners.

The two sides also agreed to promote co-operation to maximise opportunities in the context of the pandemic in the fields of digital transformation, innovation, economic restructuring and green growth.

PM Chính thanked the Australian Government for the donation of vaccines and medical equipment and hoped that Australia would continue to stand side-by-side with Việt Nam in fighting the pandemic, recovering the socio-economy, improving healthcare capacity, responding to future outbreaks and climate change, as well as assisting in training a high-skilled workforce.

The Vietnamese leader highly appreciated the development of bilateral co-operation despite the pandemic’s difficulties. The two-way trade turnover in the first nine months of this year grew strongly, reaching US$9.1 billion, a 50 per cent increase year-on-year. Australia continues to maintain a high proportion of Official Development Assistance (ODA) for Việt Nam with AUD 78.9 million in the 2021-22 financial year.

He proposed the Australian side continue to maintain official development aid for Việt Nam, consider opening the market for a number of Việt Nam’s exported agricultural and aquatic products and launching the agricultural visa programme for Vietnamese workers.

The PM proposed Australia continue to create favourable conditions for the Vietnamese community in Australia, exempt or reduce overstay fines for Vietnamese citizens stuck in Australia due to the pandemic and soon re-accept Vietnamese students to study and research in the country.

He also proposed the two countries continue to support each other and the ASEAN-Australia partnership in matters of regional and global peace, co-operation and development, including the stances of ASEAN and Việt Nam on East Sea issues.

Foreign Minister Marise Payne affirmed Australia attached great importance to the relationship with Việt Nam and placed Việt Nam at a prioritised position in infrastructure development, agriculture, poverty reduction and response to climate change co-operation.

She wishes to elevate the strategic partnership with Việt Nam in the future.

Minister Marise Payne supported the proposals made by PM Chính, especially on economic co-operation, trade, investment, education - training and common regional issues.

Australia highly appreciated Việt Nam's stance on the East Sea issues, fully supports the peaceful settlement of international disputes on the basis of compliance with the principles of international law, especially the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, she said.

She spoke highly of Việt Nam's commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050 and affirmed that Australian businesses were interested in the Vietnamese market and were willing to make the most of the opportunities that the Vietnamese potential market would bring.

She committed that Australia would expand investment in Việt Nam in the near future.

Minister Payne affirmed that Australia would continue fostering cooperation to promote sustainable development of the Mekong sub region, particularly in coping with climate change.
