Hungarian Consul General Szojka Éva Szivia congratulated Vietnam over its success in the fight against COVID-19. She said although planned activities to celebrate the anniversary of bilateral diplomatic ties could not be held due to the pandemic, the two countries can focus on cooperative opportunities in the future, especially in potential fields such as trade and education-training.

She pledged to intensify cooperation with HCM City in economy, education, culture, innovation and people-to-people diplomacy, towards the fifth anniversary of the reestablishment of the Hungarian Consulate General in the city./.
