President Quang hoped that his State
visit to Japan will open up new development phase in the Vietnam-Japan ties
towards a more intensive and effective manner, bringing practical benefits to
people of both sides and for regional and global peace, stability, cooperation
and development.
The State leader and his spouse expressed their impression on the visit to
Vietnam made by the Japanese royal couple in 2017, adding that their visit has
deepened mutual trust and understanding between the two countries’ people,
contributing to elevating the bilateral ties to a new height.
On the occasion, they invited members of the Japanese Imperial Family to visit
Vietnam in a proper time.
For their parts, the Japanese royal
couple thanked President Quang and his spouse for giving them warm welcome during
their visit to Vietnam last year. They affirmed that they treasure the
Vietnam-Japan cooperation and friendship and will do their utmost to further
develop the ties.
Japanese Emperor Akihito underlined that cultural and people-to-people
exchanges, particularly during the year the two countries are celebrating the
45th anniversary of diplomatic relations, are very important for the
development of the bilateral ties as they serve as a boost to mutual trust and
understanding.
On May 30 night, President Quang and his spouse were scheduled to attend a
national banquet hosted by the Emperor and Empress at the Imperial Palace.
In the morning, the Japanese royal couple hosted an official welcome ceremony
for President Quang and his spouse. President Quang is the first foreign State
leader to pay a State visit to Japan this year.
