The ambassador praised El Salvador’s socio-economic achievements in recent years, particularly in improving the investment environment, ensuring macroeconomic stability and enhancing people’s livelihoods. He noted that over the past three years, El Salvador has emerged as a regional model in combating organized crime and is now considered one of the safest countries in Latin America.
Hai affirmed Vietnam’s readiness to expand cooperation with El Salvador in various fields. He proposed that the two sides increase delegation exchanges to strengthen political trust, make full use of the consultation mechanism between their foreign ministries, and accelerate efforts to improve the legal framework for trade and investment.
He emphasized that people-to-people exchanges and cooperation in culture and education are essential foundations for building sustainable ties. He also informed that Vietnam has introduced e-visa access for Salvadoran citizens, helping promote tourism, trade and human connectivity.
For his part, Ulloa extended his warm greetings to Party General Secretary To Lam, State President Luong Cuong and other Vietnamese leaders.
He expressed admiration for Vietnam’s struggle for national liberation and reunification, as well as for the achievements of the Doi moi (Reform) initiated and led by the Communist Party of Vietnam.
The Vice President expressed hope that the two countries would continue to strengthen cooperation across multiple areas, especially as they celebrate the 15th anniversary of diplomatic ties (January 16, 2010 – 2025).
