Receiving a delegation from Eisenhower Fellowships in Hanoi on Tuesday, PM Chinh said Vietnam hopes to further develop its Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with the US in a more substantive and in-depth manner, based on respect for each other’s independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and political systems.
He welcomed the US commitment to supporting a “strong, independent, self-reliant and prosperous” Vietnam.
The Prime Minister proposed that the US soon remove Vietnam from its strategic export control lists (D1-D3) and recognize Vietnam as a market economy.
He also called on Eisenhower Fellowships to provide policy advice and support Vietnam in ensuring equal access to education for people in remote and disadvantaged areas.
PM Chinh suggested expanding cooperation with the organization, increasing scholarships for Vietnamese candidates, and promoting exchanges among universities, research institutes and expert networks. He also encouraged the organization of training programs and academic exchanges in Vietnam.
