Two-way trade turnover grew impressively, reaching 2 billion USD in 2024 and 1.9 billion USD in the first 10 months of 2025, but was not commensurate with the potential and strengths of the two countries.

Agreeing with President Luong Cuong's proposals, Senate Chairman Milos Vystrcil said that the legislative bodies of the two countries will coordinate in implementing high-level agreements, supporting the two governments to promote bilateral cooperation in all fields.
