Thao expressed his hope that in the time ahead, Hanoi will receive more cooperation in the fields that Poland holds advantages such as education-training, urban management, transport, historical relic site conservation, and ship building. 



Regarding the East Sea situation, Thao stated China’s illegal placement of its Haiyang Shiyou-981 drilling rig deep inside Vietnam’s waters is seriously violating international law, threatening both regional and global security. 



He asked the Polish Government to support Vietnam’s legitimate interest at international forums in its fight to force China to withdraw its rig from Vietnam’s waters. 



Kacpercryk pledged to do her utmost to boost friendship between Polish and Vietnam, and between their capital cities. 



The Polish Deputy FM is leading a delegation of more than 50 enterprises, operating in food processing, green technology, waste treatment and mining, to visit Vietnam with the aim of seeking more trade and investment opportunities in the Southeast Asian country.
