Zakharova highlighted the many years of cooperation in fuel and energy between Vietnam and Russia as one of the pillars in their strategic and comprehensive partnership, which is becoming more intensive.
The two Governments have always paid due attention to collaboration in this field through the meetings of the Vietnam-Russia Inter-Government Committee on economics, trade, science and technology with the latest conference held during November-December 2015 in Hanoi, she added.
