Relations
Angola and Vietnam established diplomatic relations in November 1975. In 1978 the two nations signed a General Cooperation Agreement, an instrument that served as the basis for the opening of various protocols in the social, economic and technical-scientific fields.
Relations between the two countries have been limited to the areas of agriculture, health, education and trade. Figures show that there are around 20 private Vietnamese companies working in Angola. FMA/VIC/TED/AMP
