Russian President Vladimir Putin ratified the Free Trade Agreement between the Eurasian Economic Union (EAU) and Vietnam on 1 May. At the end of April, the State Duma and the Council of the Russian Federation also ratified this agreement which was signed in May 2015 in Bourabay to facilitate economic exchanges between Vietnam and this Union which includes Russia, but also Belarus, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. It will provide for exemption from customs duties for a number of goods and the application of safeguard, anti-dumping and countervailing measures, in accordance with World Trade Organisation (WTO) regulations.
Annual trade between Vietnam and the EAU averages around $4 billion. The signing of their free trade agreement will raise it to $10 billion by 2020.
Vietnam's ambassador to Russia, Ngô Duc Manh, stressed the positive development of relations between the two countries last year during a meeting with representatives of Russian and Vietnamese news agencies held in Moscow on Wednesday 30 January.
Ngo Duc Manh said bilateral relations had developed in all areas: politics, economics, defense-security, science-technology, education and relations between the two peoples. In politics, mutual confidence has been strengthened by frequent exchanges of delegations over the past year, including the visit to Russia of the Secretary General of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Nguyen Phu Trong, and trips to Vietnam by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and Duma Speaker Viacheslav Volodin.
One of the strengths of the bilateral relationship is the growing cooperation in defense and security, Ngo Duc Manh said, noting that for the first time Vietnam participated in the Army Games military demonstration party in Russia and ships of the Russian Pacific Fleet visited the port of Cam Ranh, Vietnam.
By taking advantage of the strengths of the free trade agreement between Vietnam and the Eurasian Economic Union, of which Russia is a member, companies from both countries have strengthened their economic, trade and investment partnership, the diplomat said.
Strengthening economic cooperation :
According to Vietnam's General Customs Department, bilateral trade reached $4.57 billion in 2018, up 28.6% from the previous year.
Building on the positive energy cooperation, the two sides promoted key joint projects, including the Centre for Nuclear Science and Technology Development Projects and Urban Transport in Vietnam.
Ngô Duc Manh added that the two sides had also extended their collaboration to digital technologies, e-government, renewable energy and the production of seeds, pesticides, medical equipment and pharmaceuticals. On tourism, the number of Russian visitors to Vietnam has reached a record of more than 600,000 in 2018, making it the largest in Europe and the sixth largest source of tourists, he said.
Ambassador Ngô Duc Manh said the two countries would celebrate the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty on Principles of Friendship between Vietnam and Russia, and were preparing to mark 70 years of bilateral diplomatic relations in 2020.
He expressed his conviction that the Year of Friendship would be successful and contribute to strengthening the bilateral partnership.
