The city of Milan was in fact chosen for the launch of the country’s promotional program, “Discover Vietnam”.
The Embassy of Vietnam in Italy collaborating with the Vietnam Italy Chamber of Commerce and Sea Milan Airports organized this event.
The Lombard capital could also be the protagonist of the opening of a future direct connection by Vietnam Airlines. It is a flight that would represent a further boost to the development of relations between Italy and Vietnam.
This year it celebrates 50 years of diplomatic relations between the 2 countries and their strategic partnership. Deputy Foreign Minister, Nguyen Minh Hang declared this.
