On June 24, 2026, Chinese Ambassador to Vietnam He Wei attended the “First China-Vietnam Agricultural Products Cooperation Forum” in Ho Chi Minh City, themed “Mountains and Seas in Sincere Unity, People’s Livelihood in Inclusive Prosperity.” Over 400 representatives from both countries attended, including Nguyen Minh Vu, Member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam and Permanent Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Ambassador He Wei noted that under the guidance and support of the top leaders of the two Parties and countries, agricultural cooperation between China and Vietnam has advanced with strong momentum and yielded fruitful outcomes. China is ready to work with Vietnam to expand their traditional agricultural products cooperation into full industrial chain collaboration and join hands in building a higher-level China-Vietnam community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.

Permanent Deputy Minister Nguyen Minh Vu stated that Vietnamese agricultural products are gaining popularity in the Chinese market with rapidly growing exports, which fully demonstrates the economic complementarity between the two countries and the potential for agricultural cooperation. The Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs will serve as a bridge, providing strong support for cooperation between enterprises and localities of the two countries.

During the event, Ambassador He Wei also held a media briefing, answering questions on priorities of China-Vietnam agricultural cooperation, trade policies, and customs clearance facilitation.
