Vietnam – Italy’s key economic strategy
Vietnam is on a list that Italy attaches importance to economic development, both Italy’s Foreign Minister and head of the largest employers’ association have stressed.
Together with other countries like Israel, Russia, Ukraine, the United States, Japan and Serbia, Vietnam is considered part of Italy’s economic strategy, Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini and President of the Confederation of Italian Industry (Confindustria) Emma Marcegaglia affirmed in a meeting on July 31.
The Italian government would continue assist businesses’ operations and investment through embassies, consulates, chambers of commerce and industry, the Italian Economic Development Ministry and Confindustria’s trade offices, Foreign Minister Frattini said.
The previous government of Prime Minister Romano Prodi added Vietnam into its list of Asian countries playing a key economic role for Italy and placed the Southeast Asian nation as a strategic point on trade and investment for Italian businesses till 2020.
Confindustria is the leading organisation representing manufacturing and service companies in Italy.
