The signed cooperation documents include: Memorandum of Understanding on bilateral cooperation in the field of environment, biodiversity and climate change between the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment of Vietnam and the Ministry of Environment of Finland; Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Finance of Vietnam and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Finland on supporting and promoting the preparation and implementation of projects funded under the Finnish Public Investment Program; Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Finance of Vietnam and the Finnish Export Credit Agency.
Finland established diplomatic relations with Vietnam on January 25, 1973. The Finnish Embassy in Hanoi was established in 1974 and Vietnam opened its Embassy in Helsinki in late 2005. The traditional friendship and multifaceted cooperation between the two countries have been maintained and developed well. During the most difficult period for Vietnam, Finland was one of the leading countries in providing development aid to Vietnam with iconic projects such as Finnish clean water, Finnish water supply systems in Hanoi, Hai Phong, etc.
This official visit of General Secretary To Lam and his wife along with the high-ranking Vietnamese delegation to Finland took place at a time when the two countries celebrated the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations (1973 - 2023), marking a milestone in sustainable cooperation and opening a new phase of cooperation towards the next 50 years. This is an important opportunity for the two countries to look back on the good achievements of cooperation in the past as well as to set out major orientations, renew the relationship, create momentum, and bring the traditional friendship and multifaceted cooperation to new heights.
