Vietnam-US comprehensive partnership develops fruitfully: minister

Hanoi (VNA) - The comprehensive partnership between
Vietnam and the US has developed fruitfully and substantively in
recent years, Tran Hong Ha, Minister of Natural Resources and Environment has
said.
Speaking at a ceremony to mark the 246th anniversary of US Independence Day (July 4) held on July 8 in
Hanoi, Ha stressed that mutual visits by senior leaders of the two
countries in recent years have created a driving force to consolidate the
reliable political, diplomatic and dialogue relations between the two sides,
thus deepening bilateral ties as well as contributing to peace, stability,
collaboration and development in the Asia-Pacific region.
As one of the leading countries in science and technology, the
US has made great contributions to solving global challenges such as the
COVID-19 pandemic, he said.
While appreciating the US’s active role in promoting global
efforts in response to climate change, he expressed his wish that the
North American country will actively cooperate with and support Vietnam in
fulfilling its commitments to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and a fair energy
transition process.
On the occasion, he called on US companies to actively
invest in green transition in Vietnam.
The US remains Vietnam's largest export market with a value
of 55.9 billion USD in the first six months of this year./.
