He also proposed making economic cooperation a pillar of the bilateral ties with the goal of achieving 500 million USD in annual two-way trade soon.
Mr. Chinh suggested the two governments promptly sign an agreement to make it easier for enterprises to carry out labour cooperation projects in Bulgaria, particularly in health care, construction, apparel and agriculture.
Mr. Jeliazkov asserted that Bulgaria considers Vietnam one of its important partners in ASEAN. Bulgaria wants to enhance multifaceted cooperation with Vietnam to fully optimise their vast potential.
Jeliazkov expressed his desire to strengthen ties in trade and investment, focusing on areas of the two nations' strengths such as high-tech agriculture, pharmaceuticals, information technology, tourism, culture, high-tech industries, and aviation.
