In recent times, the Vietnamese Embassy in the US has increased economic diplomatic activities to promote investment, trade and tourism cooperation between the two nations.

The embassy recently coordinated with a delegation led by Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Le Quoc Doanh to work with officials from the Department of Agriculture and the Office of the Trade Representative of the US on how to promote bilateral trade and agriculture cooperation.

Alongside discussing agreements to buy more US agricultural products, the Vietnamese delegation asked the US side to create more favorable conditions for Vietnam’s agricultural products such as grapefruit, mango and lychee to enter the US market, and recognise an irradiation facility in Vietnam’s northern region.

During meetings and working sessions with US partners, representatives from the embassy also shared Vietnam’s determination, efforts and results in the fight against the acute respiratory disease caused by the SARS-Cov-2 (COVID-19), and proposed forms of bilateral medical cooperation between the two countries.

Meanwhile, US firms highly valued the investment and business environment in Vietnam, expressing their belief that the Southeast Asian nation will continue to effectively respond to challenges, including COVID-19.
