Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien (R) meets U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, Paris, France, June 4, 2025

The session is part of the two countries' efforts to reach a reciprocal trade agreement between the two sides.

During the session, the two sides reviewed the implementation of the tasks following the second round of the technical-level negotiations and discussed the orientation for the upcoming technical negotiation round.

Minister Nguyen briefed about the key points in Viet Nam's response documents regarding the additional issues raised by the U.S., affirming Viet Nam's determination and goodwill in seeking for common grounds with the U.S.

Nguyen also suggested the U.S. reply to the issues raised by the Vietnamese side.

For his part, Greer spoke highly of Viet Nam's goodwill and approach in handling the issues concerned by the U.S., and acknowledged the efforts and constructive spirit of the Vietnamese negotiation delegation.

As Viet Nam is a comprehensive strategic partner of the U.S., reaching an agreement with Viet Nam on reciprocal tax policies is important not only for Viet Nam but also for the U.S., he noted.

Both sides pledged to accelerate the pace of negotiations, with a particular focus on maximizing efforts to achieve the best possible outcome in the third round of technical-level negotiations.

They also agreed to assign their technical teams to intensify exchanges via online working sessions, in order to resolve as many outstanding technical issues as possible and create strong momentum for the third technical negotiation round, which is expected to take place in the first half of June 2025.

The two sides committed to enhancing close coordination and expressed their willingness to conduct further ministerial-level discussions to advance the negotiation process toward a mutually beneficial outcome./.
