In particular, the effectiveness of the Vietnam - EAEU FTA has created favourable conditions for businesses of the two countries to enhance trade and investment co-operation.
Vietnamese Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Tuan Anh affirmed that the effectiveness of the Vietnam-EAEU FTA marks a turning point in the process of Vietnam's integration with large countries in the world.
To make full use of the agreement, businesses should strive to develop its new strategies and solutions to create high value products capable of competing with foreign partners and standing steady on the domestic market, Anh said.
Minister Anh noted that Vietnam and Belarus will continue to promote co-operation in trade, investment, industry, transport, education and training in order to bring the bilateral relations to a new level.
