PM to attend ASEAN-U.S. Special Summit, visit U.S. next month
VGP - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh will attend the ASEAN-U.S. Special Summit and pay a visit to the U.S. in May at the invitation of President Joe Biden.
Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Le Thi Thu Hang told reporters on Thursday.
The Summit will take place in Washington D.C from May 12-13 in celebration of the 45th anniversary of the ASEAN-U.S. dialogue relations.
Since Viet Nam and the U.S. normalized diplomatic ties 27 years ago, both sides have come a long way on the basis of a win-win partnership and mutual respect for each other's independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and political institutions, said Le.
On such a basis, Viet Nam expects and is willing to work with President Joe Biden's administration to further promote the biateral ties in a deeper, more effective and sustainable manner for peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and the world, she stated./.
