Prime Minister of Romania Dacian Ciolos began his official visit to Vietnam at the invitation of Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc on July 11.

Ciolos is scheduled to discuss with Vietnamese top leaders ways and means to step up the traditional friendship and multi-dimensional cooperation between the two countries.

As such, bilateral cooperation in trade-investment, education and training, culture-tourism, science-technology, the oil and gas industry, energy, defence technologies, the environment, employment, and local connectivity is expected to enter the next phase.

During the visit, regional and international issues of shared concern will be touched upon by the leaders.
