Vietnam's globetrotter leader to visit Russia, France this month; US trip also planned, sources say

The trip aims to deepen ties with major partners as Vietnam seeks to offset trade uncertainty in its export-driven economy.

  • Vietnam's President To Lam plans to visit Russia, France, the United States, and Canada this September, seeking to deepen ties with major partners amid trade uncertainty facing the export-reliant economy.
  • This diplomatic push follows state visits to Australia and New Zealand last month and precedes a scheduled meeting in Hanoi this weekend with Myanmar's President Min Aung Hlaing.
  • Lam will visit Russia on September 7 to meet President Vladimir Putin, then attend the International Space Summit in Paris on September 9 to 10, building cooperation in energy and defence.
  • The United States visit includes the United Nations General Assembly debate starting September 21, amid strained ties with President Donald Trump over trade imbalances; Lam heads to Canada on September 24.
  • Although these plans remain unofficial and subject to change, Lam is expected to return to Europe in October, potentially meeting leaders in Brussels to further broaden his diplomatic agenda.
