In this paper, Antczak's η-approximation approach is used to prove the equivalence between optima of multiobjective programming problems and the η-saddle points of the associated η-approximated vector optimisation problems. We introduce an η-Lagrange function for a constructed η-approximated vector optimisation problem and present some modified η-saddle point results. Furthermore, we construct an η-approximated Mond-Weir dual problem associated with the original dual problem of the considered multiobjective programming problem. Using duality theorems between η-approximation vector optimisation problems and their duals (that is, an η-approximated dual problem), various duality theorems are established for the original multiobjective programming problem and its original Mond-Weir dual problem.
