Earlier, he had visited the Vietnamese Embassy and agencies of Viet Nam in the USA on May 31 afternoon (local time).

Vietnamese Ambassador Pham Quang Vinh said changes are taking place in Viet Nam-the USA relations under the Trump administration, creating momentum for stronger development.

The Embassy and other agencies of Viet Nam in the USA grasp the Party’s and State’s foreign policy and have exerted efforts to fulfill all assigned tasks, he noted.

He promised the embassy’s staff will work harder to contribute to Viet Nam-the USA cooperation.

Commending the embassy and other agencies for contributing to his visit’s success, PM Phuc recognised the embassy’s performance, which has helped tighten the two countries’ ties.

As the US is home to the biggest number of Vietnamese expatriates, he asked the embassy to listen to them in order to suggest policies to the Government.

He also applauded the activities of other agencies in the US such as those of Viet Nam News Agency, Viet Nam Television, and the representative office of the Ministry of Science and Technology. He asked them to further reform their activities to help solidify the countries’ friendship.
