Vietnam values its relationship with the US and hopes that bilateral ties will continue to develop positively, becoming increasingly substantive and deeper, said National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man at a reception for visiting US Senator Steven David Daines in Hanoi on March 20.

Man welcomed Daines' visit, saying it takes place in the year marking the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations and the second year of implementing the comprehensive strategic partnership.

He reaffirmed Vietnam's foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, multilateralisation and diversification of relations, and active and proactive international integration.

For his part, Daines expressed his delight at visiting Vietnam for the first time. He said he is honoured to be the first US senator to visit the country in 2025, and is impressed by Vietnam’s strong development and the hospitality of its people.

He affirmed that Vietnam is a key partner of the US in the region and thanked Vietnam’s leaders for heeding the development of bilateral relations. He also commended the achievements Vietnam has made over the past 30 years and expressed optimism about the future of the two countries' relations.

The senator agreed with Man’s proposals for strengthening bilateral cooperation and pledged to continue contributing to the growth of US-Vietnam ties.

He stressed the need to increase exchanges and visits by the two countries' lawmakers, and expand economic, trade and investment cooperation, including between the US state of Montana and Vietnamese localities./.
