On November 21, Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Pham Thu Hang provided with this information at the Ministry's regular press conference in Hanoi in response to a reporter's query about the US's recent handover of T-6C trainer aircraft to Vietnam.
This cooperative activity is within the framework of the Vietnam - US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership for Peace, Cooperation and Sustainable Development, which is flourishing, contributing positively to peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and the world, Spokesperson Hang said.
Responding to a reporter's question about the US Department of the Treasury (TREAS)'s conclusion that no trading partners, including Vietnam, manipulated exchange rates, Spokesperson Hang said that Vietnam highly appreciated the US's move.
The Department’s semiannual report on macroeconomic and foreign exchange policies of major trading partners of the US which was released recently determined that no trading partners, including Vietnam, engaged in exchange rate manipulation to affect the balance of payments or gain an unfair competitive advantage in international trade, she said.
Spokesperson Hang held that in recent times, based on the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the two countries, economic and trade relations between Vietnam and the US have achieved positive results. In the coming time, Vietnamese authorities will continue to maintain close cooperation, and regular and effective exchanges with TREAS to enhance mutual understanding, thereby promoting the stable and sustainable development of economic relations between Vietnam and the US for the benefit of both nations' people.
