Vice President Vo Thi Anh Xuan begins working visit to Denmark

Bilateral relations between Vietnam and Denmark have increasingly been strengthened over the past five decades, especially after the two countries upgraded their ties to a comprehensive partnership in 2013 and established a green strategic partnership in early November 2023.

Trade exchanges between the two countries have prospered over the past decade, with two-way trade turnover increasing from US$480 million 2013 to nearly US$900 million last year. Denmark currently has 155 investment projects in Vietnam with a total capital of US$1.79 billion. Notably, the Lego Group project in Binh Duong province is the largest, valued at more than US$1 billion.

This visit to Denmark by Vice President Vo Thi Anh Xuan is to affirm the close bond, trust and mutual understanding between the leaders and people of the two countries, contributing to consolidating and deepening the comprehensive and strategic relationship between Vietnam and Denmark, according to Luong Thanh Nghi, Vietnamese Ambassador to Denmark, in a recent interview granted to Vietnam News Agency.

In addition to meetings with Danish leaders, the Vice President will also meet with a number of leading Danish businesses to affirm Vietnam’s commitment to creating a stable and favorable environment for foreign businesses, including Danish firms, to operate efficiently in the country.

Xuan’s trip is an opportunity for the two sides to promote mutually beneficial cooperation in the areas of energy, green transformation, and sustainable development, among others, said the ambassador.
