President Rahmon expressed Tajikistan's high regard for and desire to strengthen comprehensive cooperative relations with Vietnam. He affirmed that Vietnam is an important partner in Southeast Asia, and Tajikistan wishes to expand cooperation with Vietnam as well as through Vietnam to expand cooperation with other countries in the region and ASEAN.

He highlighted potential areas for enhanced collaboration, including agriculture, railway connectivity, and infrastructure development.

The two leaders appreciated the positive development steps in bilateral cooperation, and said that the two sides still have a lot of untapped potential and room to promote comprehensive cooperation in all fields.

They concurred to promote cooperation and support for each other at multilateral forums, especially at the U.N., while exchanging notes on several regional and international issues of mutual concerns.

On this occasion, President Cuong invited President Rahmon to visit Vietnam and attend the signing ceremony of the U.N. Convention against Cybercrime in Hanoi in late October. President Rahmon thanked for the invitation and, in turn, invited President Cuong to pay an official visit to Tajikistan soon.
