Tran Thuong - Pham Hai
This marks the first visit of President Nyusi to Vietnam since taking office and the first visit of a Mozambican President to Vietnam in over 17 years.
The visit, which runs from September 8 to 10, highlights the strengthening of bilateral relations between the two nations.
The reception began at 9:30 a.m. with a ceremonial motorcade escorted by lead vehicles and security. The motorcade arrived at the red carpet where President To Lam and First Lady Ngo Phuong Ly greeted President Nyusi and First Lady Isaura Ferrao Nyusi.
During the ceremony, President To Lam invited President Nyusi to the honor podium. The national anthems of both countries were played, and the leaders paid their respects to the flags of their respective nations.
Following the ceremony, President To Lam invited President Nyusi to review the Guard of Honor of the Vietnam People's Army. The leaders then met with members of both delegations and observed a military parade in their honor.
After the official reception, the two leaders proceeded to hold talks. President Nyusi is scheduled to meet with other senior Vietnamese leaders, visit various businesses, educational institutions, and cultural sites.
Earlier, President Nyusi and his delegation laid wreaths at the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and the War Heroes Memorial on Bac Son Street to pay their respects.
Vietnam and Mozambique established diplomatic relations on June 25, 1975, the same day Mozambique declared independence. The traditional friendship between the two countries has grown from mutual support in their respective independence struggles to a robust partnership in economic and social development.
This visit, marking the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations (1975-2025), is a significant milestone in enhancing the bilateral relationship. Vietnam and Mozambique maintain a strong friendship, with frequent high-level exchanges and mutual support at international forums.
In 2023, bilateral trade reached $546.4 million, with Vietnam exporting $127 million in goods such as rice and fertilizer and importing $419.4 million, primarily in coal and cashews.
