Vietnam has been co-operating strongly and comprehensively in economy, trade, and investment with Cuba, with a focus on a number of key fields such as agriculture, biotechnology, health care, and production of consumer goods, tourism infrastructure construction, hotel management, and construction materials.

According to the Minutes signed at the meetings of the Intergovernmental Committee, Vietnam will continue to supply rice stably to Cuba and help it to improve production capacity and contribute to ensuring food security through co-operation projects to develop rice, maize, and seafood production in the Caribbean country. Realizing that memorandum of understanding, at the start of April, the Party, State, and People of Vietnam donated 5.000 tonnes of rice to the Cuban people.

The strong political relationship has created momentum for effective economic and trade cooperation between the two countries. Viet Nam is currently Cuba’s second largest trading partner in the Asia-Pacific and Oceania regions. According to VOV, last year’s two-way trade turnover totaled US $262 million, up 46.6% from 2020.
