Vietnam US trade talks near final outcome
Vietnam and the United States are nearing an outcome in reciprocal trade negotiations as both sides deepen economic cooperation and work towards a more balanced trade relationship
Party General Secretary and State President To Lam met with US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in New York on September 21 during his visit to the United States. The two discussed the importance of economic, trade, and investment cooperation between Vietnam and the US, which directly benefits businesses and individuals and contributes to the development of both countries.
Ambassador Greer expressed appreciation for Vietnam's efforts to balance trade and highlighted the substantial progress made in recent negotiations. The two negotiating teams have achieved a high degree of consensus and are close to reaching a final outcome. In October 2025, Vietnam and the US agreed to issue a joint statement on a framework for reciprocal, fair, and balanced trade, outlining key elements such as addressing non-tariff barriers, finalising commitments related to digital trade, services, investment, and strengthening cooperation to enhance supply chain resilience.
