Ammon News - Lower House Speaker Mazen Qadi, who is currently heading a parliamentary delegation, met with a number of officials in Vietnam, reiterating Jordan’s interest in forging partnerships that deliver mutual benefit for the two countries.

Qadi praised Vietnam’s progress in artificial intelligence, agriculture, industry, and health and medical supplies.

In talks with General Secretary of the Communist Party To Lam, Qadi said Jordan, under His Majesty King Abdullah II, values Vietnam’s consistent position on the Palestinian cause, its support for the two-state solution, and its affirmation of the Hashemite Custodianship over Jerusalem's Islamic and Christian holy sites.

Qadi expressed appreciation for Vietnam’s material and moral support for Gaza’s residents, calling for increasing international support to end their suffering.

Qadi also congratulated To Lam on his re-election as party leader.

During a meeting with President Luong Cuong, Qadi voiced hope for promoting tourist flow between the two countries, noting both Jordan and Vietnam offer historical and religious tourist assets and calling for more popular visits.

Meeting with Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, Qadi said the King, upon returning from his recent visit to Vietnam, directed Jordanian officials to open new cooperation avenues with Vietnam and "prioritize" expanding tourism and cultural exchange.

Vietnamese officials said the visit drew strong interest, which came three months after the King’s historic visit to Vietnam and agreed on expanding cooperation by signing agreements to strengthen relations across sectors.

The officials said both countries are keen to enhance cooperation in health, education, and agriculture, stressing the importance of the United Nations’ role in resolving disputes through dialogue and respect for international law and the UN Charter.

Reiterating Vietnam’s "steady" position on the Palestinian cause, they voiced appreciation for King Abdullah II’s efforts, particularly in advancing peace in the region. Petra
