PM Dung made the statement during a January 14 reception for newly appointed Saudi Arabian Ambassador to Viet Nam Dakhil Al Johani.

He said that bilateral ties are developing in numerous fields and the Government wishes to enhance the practicality and effectiveness of the relations.

Both countries should improve mutual understanding, trust and support at international forums, particularly the United Nations, as well as boost trade ties, striving for a US$2 billion two-way trade turnover by the end of 2015, PM Dung suggested.

The two sides should foster cooperation in labor, oil and gas, especially conclude Agreements on Encouragement and Protection of Investments and Aviation as soon as possible, the Government leader added.

The ambassador promised to work for the realization of bilateral agreements and conclusion of new agreements to promote both sides’ potential.

He affirmed the Saudi Arabian Government’s resolution in promoting cooperation with Viet Nam and considering the country as an important and potential market.

He also expressed his wish to witness breakthroughs in bilateral cooperation.
