In addition, Minister Dien emphasized Vietnam's view on wanting to work with the US to build harmonious, practical rules of origin that are suitable to the characteristics of the global supply chain, ensuring non-discrimination and creating favorable conditions for businesses of the two countries.
Secretary Lutnick and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer appreciated Vietnam's efforts and goodwill in addressing issues of US concern. These will help the US consider a reciprocal tax policy appropriate to Vietnam's specific conditions and circumstances.

Chief US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said the US Trade Representative (USTR) will soon complete and send back to Vietnam the necessary documents so that the two sides can focus on discussions towards results that are in line with the interests of Vietnam and the US.
