Geneva (VNA) - Vietnam has never received such attention, reflected through the establishment and signing of economic deals and partnership agreements with foreign partners, according to an article highlighting Vietnam’s outstanding position in the region, posted on the Tribune de Geneva newspaper by Alain Jourdan.

The author affirmed that a series of economic reforms initiated from 1986, along with globalisation, have transformed Vietnam from one of the poor countries in the world to a middle-income country in just one generation.

Vietnam attaches great importance to multilateral mechanisms and forums, as its foreign policy, built over the past decades, has looked towards becoming a friend of every country in the world, most specifically the agreements with the US and China in 2023.

It can be said that Vietnam is on track to become a key country at the heart of the region that the world is looking towards, the reporter wrote. He also shared more impressions with Vietnam's economic development situation, highlighting his expectation that the country will record the highest growth rate in Southeast Asia in 2024, at 6-6.5%.

Talking to Vietnam News Agency reporters in Geneva, Jourdan shared his assessment about Vietnam’s bamboo diplomacy.

He said that Vietnam shows ingenuity in managing its relations with major countries, and its hope to establish balanced relationships to increasingly demonstrate its role in the international arena and at multilateral forums./.
