Emphasising the great potential for the two countries’ cooperation, the Government leader hoped that during his tenure, the ambassador will do his utmost to foster the strong and effective development of the bilateral relations, in terms of politics, diplomacy, trade, investment, culture, and people-to-people exchange.

He affirmed that Vietnamese agencies will create every condition for the ambassador to fulfill his tasks, contributing to developing the bilateral ties in a more practical and effective manner.

For his part, Obaid Saeed Bintaresh Al Dhaheri spoke highly of Vietnam’s socio-economic development achievements and stressed that senior UAE leaders always wish to boost all-round relations with Vietnam.

The ambassador proposed the PM instruct relevant agencies in Vietnam to facilitate the grant of visas to UAE citizens, thus encouraging and promoting tourism connection and people-to-people exchange between the two countries.

He asserted, as the UAE Ambassador to Vietnam, he will try his best to continuously boost the collaboration between the two countries’ governments, businesses and people.
