He said he believes that the two countries will continue to strengthen their cooperation more comprehensively in all areas, particularly in politics-diplomacy, economics-trade-investment, culture, education, and people-to-people exchange, in order to match the potential of each country.
Chaib said that during his tenure in Vietnam, he has made continuous efforts to nurture the traditional friendship and solidarity between the two countries, particularly through organizing a meeting of the Intergovernmental Committee and closely coordinating with ministries and sectors to implement specific conclusions and actions in bilateral cooperation.
He affirmed that after returning to Algeria for his new assignment, regardless of the position he holds, he will always bear in mind an image of Vietnam - a country rich in historical and cultural traditions, with dynamic economic development and an increasingly prominent role and status on the international stage.
President Luong Cuong appreciated the diplomat’s contributions during his tenure in Vietnam, which have helped foster and strengthen the traditional friendship between the two countries.
The two sides agreed that both countries should continue to support each other at multilateral forums and work together to contribute to peace, stability, and sustainable development in both regions and in the world.
Chaib conveyed an invitation to visit Algeria from President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to the Vietnamese State President at a convenient time. Cuong accepted the invitation with pleasure and expressed his desire to welcome the President of Algeria to Vietnam in the near future.
