Son affirmed that Viet Nam pursues a foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, multilateralization and diversification of foreign relations, and that it attaches importance to developing its relations with the United States.
He appreciated the contribution Campbell has made to the development of the US-Viet Nam relations over the years and expressed Viet Nam’s willingness to work closely with the US to further promote the comprehensive partnership between the two countries in the interest of their people, contributing to strengthening peace, security, development and prosperity in the region and around the world.
For his part, Campbell affirmed that the US wants to strengthen its comprehensive partnership with Viet Nam. He highly appreciated Viet Nam’s successful assumption of its roles as ASEAN Chair in 2020 and a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for 2020-2021.
He expressed his wish that both sides will continue to work closely at regional and international forums to address issues of mutual concern.
The two sides agreed that the US-Viet Nam relationship has flourished considerably in all fields in recent times and will further develop in the future on the basis of the principle of ‘mutual respect for each other’s independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and political institutions and mutual benefit.’
