Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Speaker of the Jordanian House of Representatives Mazen Turki El Qadi agreed to raise bilateral trade turnover to $500 million by 2030 and $1 billion by 2035, during their meeting in Hanoi on February 3.

They also agreed to accelerate market access for each side's competitive goods, support each other in ensuring food security, and develop the Halal industry.

PM Chinh emphasized that Vietnam is willing to ensure a stable and high-quality supply of agricultural and aquatic products for Jordan and welcomes Jordanian enterprises to the country to explore opportunities for investment and business cooperation.

Mr. El Qadi said Jordan considers Vietnam as an important partner in Asia, expressing his hope to strengthen bilateral ties, particularly in the fields of agricultural production, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, defense industry, cybersecurity, halal industries, and science and technology.

He proposed establishing a free trade zone for Vietnamese goods in Jordan to facilitate exports to the Middle East.
