Việt Nam is ready to further open its market and offer more incentives for US exports, hoping for reciprocal steps, Minister Nguyễn Hồng Diên told Senator Roger Marshall in Washington DC on June 11 (local time).
The meeting took place as part of the ongoing intergovernmental negotiations aimed at building an agreement that aligns with the strategic interests of both parties, in accordance with the Việt Nam–US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
The negotiations were characterised by goodwill, a frank and respectful dialogue, and a shared commitment to institutional integrity, mutual benefit and alignment with each country''s development level and international commitments.
Amid unpredictable fluctuations in US tariff policies, Vietnamese businesses must take a proactive and strategic approach to sustain their exports to this key market, experts emphasised at a workshop held in HCM City on May 9.
While AmCham acknowledges the need to address the growing trade deficit between the two nations, it strongly urges the US administration to consider implementing a grace period.
