State President Nguyen Minh Triet took the occasion to present his appreciation to the warm hospitality of Algerian leaders and people.
He also emphasized that Vietnam would like to receive assistance from Algeria to speed up its trade with African markets, including the Algerian one. In return, Algerian products can use Vietnam’s open door to approach other Southeast Asian markets.
On the other hand, the Algerian leaders applauded the agricultural and construction achievements of Vietnam in the past years. Both countries will bring into play their strengths while improving their weaknesses to further boost their two-way trade, they affirmed./.
