Turkey looks at co-operation potential

Turkey looks at co-operation potential
Viet Nam News spoke to Turkish Ambassador Ahmet Akif Oktay on the occasion of his country's National Day tomorrow.

We welcome you as the new Ambassador of Turkey to Viet Nam. What are your priorities during your term?

One of the urgent tasks I will focus on is the signing of agreements on the promotion of investments and avoidance of double taxation. Negotiations on both documents are almost complete. Furthermore, we have just begun to explore the possibility of signing a Free Trade Agreement between the two countries. There are also other agreements in the pipeline in diverse fields ranging from sister city relations to scientific and technological co-operation. Finalising such documents will naturally be one of my priorities.
