HÀ NỘI Over the past seventy-five years, the relationship between Việt Nam and Hungary has been built on a foundation of deep political trust, mutual empathy, sincere affection, and mutual understanding.

Notably, in September 2018, the bilateral ties were elevated to a “Comprehensive Partnership”, establishing a higher-level framework for cooperation. This milestone has provided fresh momentum for strengthening the traditional relationship, promoting multifaceted collaboration, and deepening mutual trust and understanding between the leaders and peoples of both countries. — VNS
