The two leaders agreed on the need to increase extensive political dialogue at all levels, especially at the high level, between the Vietnamese and Uzbek parties, states, governments, and parliaments; maintain close coordination and mutual support at multilateral forums; further reinforce cooperation between their legislative bodies and share experiences in supervising law enforcement and making decisions about nationally important issues; and review and sign cooperation documents to create a solid legal framework for bilateral relations to grow comprehensively.

To further promote bilateral economic, trade, and investment cooperation to a new height, they agreed on the need to encourage businesses from both countries to connect with each other and explore cooperation opportunities in areas such as health care, energy, oil and gas, textile-garment, and agriculture.

President Mirziyoyev and Chairman Man shared the view that that there remains ample potential for the two countries to bolster cooperation in fields such as transport connectivity, tourism, culture, education and training, and locality-to-locality ties. Vietnam and Uzbekistan should create favorable conditions for enhancing tourism links and people-to-people exchanges while considering the launch of more air routes, increasing the frequency of direct flights, and implementing favorable visa policies for each other’s citizens.
