"Vietnam hopes that Airbus will continue to invest in areas of its strength such as aerospace, and cooperate with Vietnamese partners in researching and evaluating aircraft so that they can select suitable planes and conduct highly effective flights," the minister said.

He suggested that Airbus research and invest in component manufacturing factories and participate in developing Vietnam's aviation industrial ecosystem.

In addition, he called on the company to encourage French enterprises and Airbus partners to increase their investments in Vietnam and develop supporting industries.

The MoF leader said he hoped that Airbus will continue to promote activities with Vietnamese agencies, ministries, and sectors, especially in new areas of cooperation such as aerospace, science and technology, and aviation training.

He said Vietnam is committed to creating favourable conditions for French investors to do business effectively and sustainably in Vietnam.
