Vietnam, Hungary strengthen veterinary cooperation
Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Diep Kinh Tan and his Hungarian counterpart Endre Kardevan signed a veterinary cooperation agreement between the two countries in Hanoi on October 30.
According to Tan, the agreement provides a sound basis for future bilateral cooperation between the Ministries of Agriculture and Rural Development not only in the veterinary field but also in other areas.
Under the agreement, the two sides will strengthen veterinary cooperation, including regular exchanges of information on quarantine used for pork and poultry meat import and export of Vietnam, making it easier for involved businesses.
The two sides will also seek to foster cooperation in import and export of other agricultural products.
Over the years, the agriculture sectors of Vietnam and Hungary have focused on exchanging officials and experts to learn from each other’s experience.
A joint working group of the two ministries under the Vietnam-Hungary Inter-governmental Committee met and agreed to gather biennially to forge long-term cooperation.
