Vietnam and New Zealand promote Comprehensive Strategic Partnership

VOV.VN - Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Dang Hoang Giang on August 20 received New Zealand Ambassador to Vietnam Caroline Beresford, discussing the realisation of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership framework between the two countries.

At the meeting, Deputy Minister Giang emphasised that upgrading the Vietnam–New Zealand relationship to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership earlier this year is not only historic but also reflects the strong commitment of both governments toward concrete actions that bring practical benefits to their people and businesses.

Giang, who is also Vietnam’s ASEAN Senior Officials’ Meeting (SOM) leader, affirmed that Vietnam and ASEAN always consider New Zealand an important partner in the region, highlighting the importance of maintaining a peaceful, stable, and rules-based regional structure. He also agreed to continue close coordination with New Zealand in both bilateral and multilateral frameworks, promote economic and trade cooperation, explore new growth drivers, and identify strategic issues for the next ASEAN–New Zealand Action Plan.

Ambassador Beresford stated that 2025 is significant for New Zealand as it marks both the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations with Vietnam and with ASEAN. She praised Vietnam’s role and position in New Zealand’s foreign policy and affirmed that New Zealand would continue efforts to align Vietnam’s socio-economic development priorities and foreign policy with New Zealand’s strengths to ensure cooperative programmes bring tangible value.

The Ambassador also expressed gratitude to Vietnam, as ASEAN–New Zealand coordinator, for its positive contributions to promoting and elevating the ASEAN–New Zealand Dialogue Partnership during this 50th-anniversary year.
