The visit is taking place at a time when the relations between Vietnam and Japan in general and the bilateral defence ties in particular are continuously reinforced.

It is one of the specific activities to implement the agreements reached by leaders of the two nations’ Parties, States and defence ministries, aiming to further deepen the bilateral defence partnership.
