On the same day, in the afternoon, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc and German Minister for Economics and Energy Brigitte Zypries attended Vietnam – Germany Business Forum in Berlin and witnessed the signing ceremony of 28 cooperation agreements worth over 1.5 billion euros.

Mr. Phuc explained that Vietnam had improved the business environment and gradually opened the market following the commitments on international integration by signing 12 free trade agreements (FTAs). Vietnam is working on FTAs with EU, hoping to attract more German investors and help them extend their market, not only in Vietnam but also in ASEAN and China.

Numerous business leaders expressed their hope for cooperation between Germany and Vietnam enterprises on green energy, healthcare, underground rail travelling, gas turbines manufacturing, smart city, financing,… Mr Phuc appreciated their goodwill and affirmed, “Government of Vietnam commits to satisfy any reasonable requests and demands of the investors. Your victory is also ours.”
