Vietnam’s President To Lam to visit China, with trade and rail links on the agenda

TO LAM’S RISE TO POWER

The top four pillars of Vietnam’s political system, which are the country’s president and prime minister, the Communist Party’s general secretary, and the assembly’s head, have usually been divided into these four positions.

Mr. Lam is the director of the Central Military Commission, a place he obviously assumes as celebration chief, and he also holds two of the four roles as well as the world’s highest military post.

A decades-long senior in the world’s public safety equipment, Mr Lam rapidly ascended among the governing leaders. He went from being Vietnam’s general officer to leader, and added party public minister to his profile, all in less than three times. &nbsp,

His most recent notable appearance in international affairs was in June when he hosted Russian President Vladimir Putin in Hanoi. He is a fresh experience in Vietnam’s next generation of leaders. Russia, also, has powerful historical and ideological ties to Vietnam.

ROBUST ECONOMIC Relationships

Vietnam’s Foreign Minister Bui Thanh Son told local press that the condition visit to Beijing this period will be another step, opening a new phase in Vietnam-China relationships.

According to experts, the new Asian leader’s main goal is to form a personal relationship with his Chinese counterpart.

” Vietnam considers China-Vietnam ties a proper decision. The two countries share a boundary, they share many similarities, including the composition of the social system”, said Dr Hai.

He anticipates that Mr. Lam will talk with Mr. Xi about Vietnam’s business gap and urges a more even industry balance between the two nations.

China is Vietnam’s largest buying companion, with two-way business accounting for US$ 173.3 billion last year.

But, Vietnam’s exports to China is at less than half of the value of goods, indicating its heavy emphasis on Chinese products, particularly natural sources from Vietnam’s commercial items.

SOUTH CHINA SEA Conflicts

In the South China Sea, where both sides have been embroiled in a protracted regional debate, Mr. Lam’s approaching visit comes as a result of rising conflicts.

This year marks the 10-year celebration of large anti-China demonstrations in Vietnam, after Beijing installed an oil rig off Vietnam’s coast near disputed islands.

Since then, diplomatic conflicts in the South China Sea have been largely unaffected.

In fact, observers point out that without any apparent opposition or disturbance from China, Vietnam has increased construction that in recent years.

The management of the sea debate will be a topic of another important conversation in Beijing during Mr. Lam’s visit.

Stepping A Harmony

Amid the rivalry between China and the United States, Vietnam wants to keep a harmony in relationships with both nations, said spectators.

Vietnam views the United States as a top concern. Vietnam’s growth really needs a extremely quiet environment and safety”, said Dr Hai.

The regional government, which has a strong suspicion of China due to generations of wars, will closely monitor Mr. Lam’s explore.

Our top goal is always going to be with China. We want to keep connection relationships”, said Tran Tam Giap, a Hanoi citizen.

” Many people in Vietnam claim that we do n’t fear China.” If it comes down to a battle, we are ready to battle. But that presents a lot of harm. Peace and stability are in our best hobbies”.
