Vietnam wants to boost cooperation with African nations, including Morocco, said Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong at a reception for Mohamed Nabil Benabdallah, General Secretary of Morocco’s Party of Progress and Socialism (PPS) in Hanoi on April 15.
Trong lauded recent positive developments in Vietnam-Morocco relations and expressed hope both countries will introduce appropriate incentives to encourage the two business circles to expand cooperation in various areas, especially in economics, investment and trade.
He congratulated sound achievements Morocco has made in maintaining political stability, boosting economic development and ensuring social security, thus lessening the impact of regional political upheavals on its national development.
He said he believes with people’s strong support and efforts by political parties in Morocco, including PPS, the Moroccan government will reap greater success in national construction and defence.
For his part, Benabdallah briefed his host on major developments in Morocco and North Africa, as well as operations of the PPS.
He hailed Vietnam’s increasing role globally and proposed closer friendship and stronger cooperation between the PPS and the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) and the two countries.
He invited the CPV to attend the 9th national congress of the PPS to be held in June 2014.
Earlier the same day, the PPS delegation held talks with a CPV delegation led by Hoang Binh Quan, a Party Central Committee member and head of the Party Commission for Foreign Relations.
Both sides agreed to increase exchange visits and cooperate closely at regional and international forums.(Source:VOV)
