The visit will continue to foster the Viet Nam – Germany energy cooperative relationship, which has been built and developed previously throughout the Vietnamese representatives’ visit to Berlin in March 2022 within the framework of the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue and the Vietnamese – German Energy Day, as well as the BMWK’s visit to Viet Nam in last November 2022.

A highlight of this event is the discussion on the main topic of considering upgrading the current form of cooperation “Energy Dialogue” to “Energy Partnership” between Viet Nam and Germany. With the “Energy Partnership”, bilateral cooperation would be more comprehensive.
