The host wished that as a member of the European Union (EU), the Czech Republic would urge the EU to promptly ratify the free trade agreement with Vietnam and recognise Vietnam as a market economy.
Miroslav Antl, for his part, informed the host of the outcomes of his working session with the Vietnamese NA’s Law Committee, saying that both sides have reached key consensus and the signed agreements will continue to be implemented.
