US EditionUS tells Vietnam trade deficit 'unsustainable' and major concern during tariff talks
- On Friday in Jeju, South Korea, Vietnam and the United States conducted their inaugural face-to-face ministerial talks focused on tariffs.
- The talks followed a phone call last month and came amid a planned reciprocal U.S. tariff of 46% on Vietnamese imports, scheduled for July.
- Vietnam relies heavily on exports to the U.S., which is its largest export market and accounts for a $123.5 billion trade surplus last year, ranking fourth among U.S. partners.
- U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer supports Vietnam’s current proposals, and Vietnam has reduced tariffs and cracked down on transshipment to address U.S. concerns about trade imbalance and fraud.
- The negotiations symbolize both countries’ commitment to a stable economic relationship but suggest that Vietnam’s growth could be disrupted if the tariff is enforced as planned.
