Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh's visit to India contributes to strengthening political trust, deepening multifaceted cooperation, and making Vietnam-India relations more substantive and effective.
On the morning of August 1, at the Presidential Palace in New Delhi, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi presided over the official welcoming ceremony for Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on a state visit to India.
From early morning, the Indian army cavalry and honor guard were neatly and solemnly ready to perform the welcoming ceremonies for Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh.
When Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh's motorcade arrived at the gate of the Presidential Palace, the Cavalry team came out to welcome and escort the Prime Minister's motorcade into the Ceremony area.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was waiting and went to the car door to welcome Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh.
As Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh stepped onto the podium, under the Vietnamese and Indian flags, the national anthems of the two countries were played by the military band.
The national anthems of the two countries had just ended, the Captain of the Indian Army Guard of Honour invited the Prime Minister to review the Guard of Honour.
Afterwards, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Prime Minister Narendra Modi introduced to each other the delegations from each side attending the welcoming ceremony.
The welcome ceremony ended with warm handshakes.
This is the first visit of Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh as head of the Government and the first visit to India by a Vietnamese Prime Minister in 10 years.
The visit contributes to strengthening political trust, deepening multifaceted cooperation, and making the Vietnam-India Comprehensive Strategic Partnership more substantive and effective in politics, diplomacy, security, defense, economy, trade, and investment.
This is also an opportunity for the two countries to increase sharing on regional and international security and strategic issues and affirm mutual support in multilateral forums of mutual interest.
