The affirmation was made by Minister of Foreign Affairs Bui Thanh Son at a reception in Hanoi on June 12 for General Secretary of the United Left Movement (MIU) Party and Minister of Regional Integration Policies of the Dominican Republic Miguel Mejia, who is on a working visit to Vietnam.

At the function, FM Son told his Dominican guest that the nation greatly values the Dominican Republic's government for appointing a resident ambassador to Vietnam in 2022 and opening its embassy in the country in 2023.
The efforts have served as a bridge to strengthen increasingly effective and substantive development of the bilateral relationship.

FM Son also conveyed State President To Lam's congratulations to President Luis Abinader on his re-election for the second consecutive term in the general election held on May 19.

He noted his appreciation for the contributions by Mejia to the development of relations between the two nations .

In reply, Mejia stated that his visit is designed to further deepen the fruitful political and diplomatic relations, and expand the economic, trade, and investment cooperation between the two countries, especially in potential fields such as trade, agriculture, telecommunications, construction, energy, and oil and gas industry.

Both sides consented to boost closer coordination and actively roll out measures to foster the bilateral relations in the time ahead through Party-to-Party, State-to-State, and people-to-people diplomacy channels, including  intensifying high-level delegation exchanges, connecting and supporting businesses, augmenting cooperation, and offering mutual support for each other at international organisations and multilateral forums, especially the United Nations.
