According to a VNA correspondent in South America, in the article, the newspaper relationship commented that the Vietnam-Brazil is developing strongly, becoming a vivid symbol of South-South cooperation in a multipolar and competitive world . Although half a world apart, the two countries have found deep connections in history, culture and development aspirations.
Vietnam and Brazil established diplomatic relations on May 8, 1989. Although located in two hemispheres, the two countries are connected by remarkable similarities: the history of the struggle for independence, rich cultural identity and warm hospitality of the people. These values have become a bridge, turning traditional friendship into strategic steps forward.
With the milestone of establishing a Strategic Partnership in 2024, Vietnam and Brazil are opening a new era of comprehensive cooperation, in which Vietnam - a rising star in Asia - shines with its outstanding economic potential and increasingly important strategic role.
Novaresistencia's article highlights that Vietnam-Brazil trade turnover has grown dramatically from 1.5 billion USD in 2011 to more than 7.7 billion USD in 2024, an increase of more than 5 times in more than a decade. This growth reflects the strategic complementarity between the two economies as Vietnam strengthens its role in the global supply chain.
Vietnam's prominent products such as seafood, textiles, footwear, rubber, steel and processed industrial goods not only meet the needs of the Brazilian market but also diversify the supply for this South American country. Vietnam is one of the world's largest seafood exporters, with products such as shrimp and pangasius meeting international standards, very popular in Brazil.
In contrast, Brazil - with its rich natural resources and position as an agricultural power - has provided strategic products such as soybeans, corn, wheat, cotton, minerals and animal feed ingredients, meeting Vietnam's agricultural and processing industry needs. This complementarity creates a sustainable value chain, benefiting both markets.
However, Vietnam's economic potential extends far beyond traditional products. With a modern economic development strategy, Vietnam is rapidly becoming a hub for high-tech, digital economy, clean energy and biotechnology. Vietnam is one of the world's largest manufacturers of smartphones and electronic components, with brands such as Samsung, Apple and Intel setting up production facilities here.
With the ambitious goal of reaching bilateral trade turnover of 10 billion USD by 2025 and 15 billion USD by 2030, Vietnam and Brazil are building the foundation for a comprehensive economic cooperation phase, in which Vietnam - with its rapid growth rate, strategic location and extensive FTA network - plays an important role as a bridge between Brazil and Asia.
The article emphasizes that the Strategic Partnership between Vietnam and Brazil is a symbol of solidarity and aspiration of developing countries. With political trust as the foundation, economic and trade cooperation as the driving force and cultural diplomacy as the bridge, the two countries are building a typical cooperation model, bringing practical benefits to the people and contributing to global peace and stability.
