At a meeting with Chilean Foreign Minister Roberto Ampuero Espinoza on Wednesday, Hue suggested the two sides intensify the exchange of all-level delegations, effectively utilize cooperation mechanisms between their Governments, ministries and agencies, and push forward the early ratification of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CoPTPP) to which both Vietnam and Chile are signatories.  At the same time, the two countries should consistently pursue trade liberalisation in order to create optimal conditions for their enterprises to access each other’s markets, Hue said. The Vietnamese Deputy PM also met with Finance Minister Felipe Larrain Bascunan, during which he urged the two sides to step up cooperation and experience exchange in the macro finance management, and complete legal frameworks to make it easier for their businesses to access the markets of Southeast Asia and Latin America.  Minister Bascunan expressed his willingness to enhance financial cooperation and share experience in financial and monetary policy management with Vietnam.
