On October 16, at a regular press conference, in response to a reporter's question asking for Vietnam's response to the US State Department's publication of the 2025 Report on Trafficking in Persons in the World (TIP Report), Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Pham Thu Hang said:

Vietnam welcomes the United States' objective assessment of Vietnam's positive results in preventing and combating human trafficking in recent times.

Vietnam has been implementing and promoting the work of preventing and combating human trafficking according to key solutions and tasks in the Program on Prevention and Combating Human Trafficking for the period of 2021-2025 and orientation to 2030, notably the adoption of the Law on Prevention and Combating Human Trafficking in 2024; strengthening investigation, prosecution, and trial of human trafficking cases; identifying and supporting victims of trafficking; promptly responding to new challenges of the human trafficking situation in the region and the world.

Vietnam is also making efforts to implement the goals of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) according to the Plan issued by the Prime Minister on March 20, 2020, to strengthen a transparent migration environment, protect the legitimate rights and interests of migrants, and prevent the risk of human trafficking in international migration activities.

In that spirit, Vietnam hopes that the two countries will continue to cooperate closely, increase exchanges and dialogues to more comprehensively and positively assess Vietnam's efforts and achievements in preventing and combating human trafficking, in line with the spirit of the Vietnam-US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership for peace, cooperation and sustainable development.
