The two economies are fully complementary and with increasing trade come stronger mutual benefits. More than 31,000 Vietnamese students are pursuing their higher education in the US.
PM Phuc told the Washington Times that he wishes to establish a strong working relationship with the Administration of President Trump to ensure not only the interest of the Vietnamese and American people but also the benefits of the ASEAN Community, for the sake of peace, security, stability, cooperation and prosperity of the Asia Pacific and the entire world.
