At the meeting with Indian Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar the two leaders agreed to thoroughly prepare for an exchange of delegations and effectively deploy cooperation mechanisms like the Joint Committee.

To further reinforce economic and trade collaboration, they pledged to work with ASEAN member states to review the ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement (AITIGA).

FM Son urged both countries to advance bilateral economic and trade agreement negotiations, and asked India to encourage large corporations to increase their investments and expand their operations in Vietnam, especially in infrastructure development, petroleum, and renewable energy.

While meeting Foreign Minister Son, Australian FM Penny Wong reiterated Australia's support for ASEAN’s central role in regional stability and its stance on the East Sea issue. 

Mr. Son invited Ms. Wong to visit Vietnam again soon and co-chair the fifth Vietnam-Australia Foreign Ministers' Meeting.
