In his letter, Sơn reaffirmed Việt Nam’s valuation of the US as one of the leading important partners.

On the back of the foundation for increasingly close relations established over the past three decades, he expressed his confidence that the two countries will continue working closely together to realise the Việt Nam-US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in a practical and effective manner, meeting the legitimate interests of their people and contributing to the maintenance of peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and the world.
