Addressing the exhibition opening ceremony, the Vietnamese Vice Ambassador to India Nguyen Le Thanh highlighted the time honored cultural ties between the two countries, saying bilateral relations have developed well and India has proven itself a trustworthy partner of Vietnam.

Thanh expressed hope that the exhibition will help international friends, particularly those in Chandigarh city of India, understand more about Vietnam and its people, while bringing the two countries closer. 

The Vietnamese ambassador  revealed that Vietnam’s VietJet Air is expected to launch a direct route to India’s Delhi by the end of this year, aiming to strengthen connectivity between the two countries.
