In line with the spirit of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, Vietnam will negotiate with the U.S. a reciprocal trade agreement based on mutual respect, aiming to achieve proper solutions towards fair and sustainable trade that benefit the people and businesses of both countries, she said.

This reflects the spirit of the Vietnam-U.S. Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the two countries, as well as the spirit of 30 years of their diplomatic relations, the spokeswoman said.

She added that 2025 marks three decades of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and the U.S., during which a wide range of commemorative activities, including high-level delegation exchanges, will be held. Further details will be announced later.
