Vietnam will consistently pursue the foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, multilateralisation, and diversification of relations, including deepening ties with partners in an effective and sustainable manner with intertwined interests, said Foreign Ministry’s spokeswoman Le Thi Thu Hang during a regular press conference in Hanoi on April 8.

"The entire political system, including the Vietnamese Government, will follow the policy," she affirmed while answering reporters’ questions about the prospect of Vietnam’s ties with major powers in the near future.

About the Vietnam – US trade ties, she asserted that the Vietnamese Government treasures economic and trade ties with the US as well as seriously implement high-level commitments, bilateral agreements, and multilateral trade commitments to which Vietnam is a member. In such spirit, the Vietnamese authorities actively worked with the US partners to deal with problems in bilateral economic and trade ties.
