On June 2, the PM arrived in Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal.

Portugal and Viet Nam established diplomatic relations in 1975. The two sides have maintained delegation exchanges at all levels and supported each other at multi-lateral forums, especially at the United Nations.

The two-way trade turnover increased from US$90 million in 2008 to US$370 million in 2014.

Viet Nam mainly exports coffee, aquatic, wood and footwear to Portugal.
