Boughali💟 said that the two countries have many similar views on a number of issues in the international arena, wishing them💧 to continue to supporting each other at international forums.
Regarding trade, he stated that their economic cooperation is still not commensurate with the potential as well as the political relationship between the two countries and needs to be expanded on all channels, in which parliamentary diplomacy is a new direction to promote development.
Algeria hopes that the two sides can expand collaboration in the fields of energy, agriculture and biomedicine, and called on Vietnamese businesses to invest in the country, he added.
Hai said that Vietnam in general and its National Assembly in particular always attach great importance to promoting relations with traditional friends in Africa, in which Algeria is one of its leading partners.
To promote bilateral cooperation, he suggested the two sides continue to step up the exchange of delegations at all levels, promoting the role of the two legislative bodies in boosting collaboration between the two countries, while making parliamentary cooperation an important channel in implementing each country's foreign policies.
He took this occasion to convey NA Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue’s invitations to President of the Council of the Nation (upper house) Salah Goudjil and President of the People's National Assembly (lower house) Ibrahim Boughali to pay official visits to Vietnam.
