Japanese FM to visit Vietnam
Hanoi, The Gulf Observer: Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs Yoko Kamikawa will visit Vietnam on October 10-11, at the invitation of Vietnamese counterpart Bui Thanh Son.
Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Phạm Thu Hang said on Thursday that the visit takes place as the Vietnam-Japan relations are “flourishing comprehensively in all aspects with a very high level of political trust.”
The two sides are promoting engagements via exchanging delegations at both high level and all levels as well as exchanges between localities, and also recently Vietnam had a visit by Crown Prince Akishino and the Crown Princess Kiko of Japan.
Vietnam and Japan are celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2023, and since the start of the year, almost 500 events have been held to commemorate this.
The foreign minister of Japan is expected to hold talks with Vietnamese counterpart Son as well as have meetings with other Vietnamese senior leaders.
