The Ministers of Industry, Commerce and Mining, Eduardo Accastello, and of Agriculture and Livestock, Sergio Busso, held a meeting on Monday in Hanoi with the Prime Minister of Vietnam, Phạm Minh Chính, within the framework of the Commercial and Institutional Mission of the Central region in the Southeast Asian country.
During the meeting, in which the governor of Entre Ríos Gustavo Bordet also participated, Phạm Minh Chính raised the possibility of enabling three weekly flights by the Vietnamese airline to the Central Region. Specifically, the Córdoba Air Hub would be the recipient of these flights, which would represent a very important link with the countries of Southeast Asia.
Likewise, progress was made on definitions that both Cordoba ministers and the governor of Entre Ríos had previously discussed with the vice ministers of Agriculture and Rural Development, Mr. Nguyen Hoang Hiep, and, of Industry and Commerce of Vietnam, Mr. Do Thang Hai, related to the negotiations for this country to import pork meat and citrus fruits produced in the Central Region.
