Hue conveyed greetings from General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam and President Nguyen Phu Trong to the two heads of state, saying Vietnam wants to develop ties with San Marino.

She proposed the two sides cooperate in multiple areas, including finance, tourism, and heritage preservation.

The ambassador later paid a courtesy visit on Foreign Minister of San Marino Nicola Renzi. Renzi said he was impressed by Vietnam’s remarkable development and agreed that both nations need to boost bilateral ties in economics, culture, and tourism.

The ambassador also attended a meeting between the Chamber of Commerce of San Marino and ambassadors from several countries.

San Marino is one of the smallest countries in the world and only covers 61.5 square kilometers in the region of Emilia Romagna, central Italy. It has a population of 30,000 and is a member of the United Nations.

Vietnam and the Republic of San Marino established diplomatic relations in 2007 and signed a Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement in 2013.
