The European Union (EU) has announced plans to dispatch an inspection delegation to Vietnam in mid-June to assess the country's pesticide control measures in key agricultural export products, including durian, dragon fruit and chilli.

VOV.VN - The European Union has decided to increase pesticide residue checks at border gates for Vietnamese durian exported to the bloc to 20%, up 10% from the previous rate.

Vietnam always considers the EU one of its most important partners, with the comprehensive partnership and cooperation, particularly between their parliaments, obtaining many achievements for the sake of their people and for peace, collaboration and development in the two continents and the world.
