Vietnam, China Sign 14 Agreements During Top Leader’s Visit To Beijing


Communist Party of Vietnam General Secretary To Lam rounded off his three-day visit to China on Tuesday with a visit to the Central Party School, which provides training to Communist Party officials. He also led a Vietnamese delegation to Beijing-headquartered artificial intelligence company Megvii, the Vietnam News Service reported.

Lam’s first foreign trip since being appointed to his country’s top job on Aug. 3 began on Sunday in the southern city of Guangzhou. He later traveled to the Chinese capital for talks with Chinese leaders.

Lam and President Xi Jinping pledged in a meeting on Monday to address territorial conflicts in the South China Sea to “maintain peace and stability,” and to work together to “continue bolstering collaboration in security and defense, boosting economic, trade and investment cooperation,” the Vietnamese government said in a statement.

The two witnessed the signing of 14 cooperation agreements, including one between the Vietnam News Agency and Xinhua News Agency and a memorandum of understanding between health ministries on cooperation.
