Political and economic relations
Vietnam has maintained good relations with Ukraine since the latter's declaration of independence from the Soviet Union. This is largely due to the existence of Vietnamese people in Ukraine and the fact that Ukraine is a primary supplier of military equipment to Vietnam. Ukraine has played a significant role in helping Vietnam upgrade and modernize its military.[2]
Vietnam has maintained a neutral stance on the Russo-Ukrainian War since 2014, and this stance has remained following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[3]
The two countries have sought to expand their trade and economic ties as of 2018.[4] For Vietnam, Ukraine is an important trade partner in Europe, due to long, historical ties between the two nations, dating back to the Soviet era.[5]
On the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland; meeting between Vietnamese Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky; the two leaders stressed that the two nations appreciate their traditional friendship and partnership. [6]
The Ukrainian Head of State thanked Viet Nam for supporting the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine, as well as for humanitarian assistance to Ukraine.
The interlocutors emphasized the importance of intensifying bilateral relations, given the longstanding ties between Ukraine and Viet Nam.
The President called on Viet Nam to support the implementation of the points of the Ukrainian Peace Formula.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Pham Minh Chinh discussed the possibility of intensifying bilateral contacts between Ukraine and Viet Nam at various levels. [7]
High level visits
In September 2017, the Ukrainian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Pavlo Klimkin, visited Vietnam and met with Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc.[8]
Diaspora
Vietnamese community in Ukraine
The 2001 Ukrainian census counted 4,000 Vietnamese people.[9] As of 2022, according to the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are approximately 7,000 Vietnamese in Ukraine.[10][11] Ukrainians regard the Vietnamese community positively, based on historical commonality and the legacy of Soviet influence between two.[12] The Vietnamese community also serves as a bridge connecting Vietnamese populations in other Slavic nations such as Poland, Russia, and Czechia, where large Vietnamese diasporas exist.
In 1985, the Soviet Union signed an agreement with Vietnam to allow gifted Vietnamese students to study or work in the country. This led to the formation of Vietnamese communities in the former Soviet Union, the largest of which are in Kharkiv, Odesa, and Kyiv.[9] Notably, billionaire Phạm Nhật Vượng lived in Kharkiv during the 1990s.
Ukrainian community in Vietnam
As of 2016, approximately 2,000 Ukrainians in total are estimated to live in Vietnam, including 120 people in the consular register of the Embassy of Ukraine in Vietnam.[13]
In Vietnam there are neither organizations of Ukrainian community, nor religious communities of immigrants from Ukraine, partly due to its large distance and lack of interests.[citation needed]
The vast majority of Ukrainians in Vietnam are labor migrants. They mainly consider their stay in Vietnam as temporary and plan to return home after labor contracts with employers conclude.[13] Ukrainian citizens work in the fields of tourism, trade, maritime transport, coal and petroleum, and a small number of them are engaged in business.[citation needed] A small number of Ukrainians belong to mixed Ukrainian-Vietnamese families.
Ukrainian citizens are most numerous in the cities of Nha Trang (about 100 people), Vũng Tàu (about 100), Hanoi (about 50), and Ho Chi Minh (50).[citation needed]
