During the meeting, the two officials highlighted the effective development of relations between Vietnam and the German state, and agreed to elevate bilateral ties to a higher level.

Binh stated that Vietnam always attaches importance to deepening its strategic partnership with Germany, and with the State of Hessen in particular.

He urged Hessen to continue supporting Vietnam in education and training, including providing scholarships for Vietnamese students and researchers, promoting training partnerships between research institutions, expanding the supply of Vietnamese human resources to work in Hessen, and facilitating the Vietnamese community's deep integration into German society, contributing to strengthening the friendship between the two countries.

Rhein showed his belief that the Vietnamese-German University (VGU), established under Hessen’s initiative, offers programmes that can support Vietnam in developing financial centres.

The two sides also agreed to work together in organising practical activities to enhance mutual trust and understanding between the two countries’ people on the occasion of the 50th founding anniversary of diplomatic relations (1975–2025).
