He noted that Brazil has invested heavily in science, technology, and innovation to build one of the cleanest energy systems in the world. He stressed that the energy transition requires investment, technological innovation, and extensive international cooperation, while affirming that Vietnam and Brazil have significant potential to strengthen cooperation in energy, science, technology, and innovation toward a green, sustainable, and prosperous future for both countries.
