HANOI: US President Donald Trump told Vietnam’s top leader To Lam he would “instruct the relevant agencies” to remove the country from a list restricted from accessing advanced US technologies, Vietnam’s government announced Saturday (Feb 21).<\/p>\n

The two leaders met in person for the first time at the White House on Friday, after Lam attended the inaugural meeting of Trump’s “Board of Peace”<\/a> in Washington.<\/p>\n

“Donald Trump said he would instruct the relevant agencies to soon remove Vietnam from the strategic export control list,” Hanoi’s Government News website said.<\/p>\n

The two countries were locked in protracted trade negotiations when the US Supreme Court ruled many of Trump’s sweeping tariffs were illegal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Three Vietnamese airlines announced nearly US$37 billion in purchases this week, in a series of contracts signed with US aerospace companies.<\/p>\n

Fledgling airline Sun PhuQuoc Airways placed an order for 40 of Boeing’s 787 Dreamliners, a long-haul aircraft, with an estimated total value of US$22.5 billion, while national carrier Vietnam Airlines placed an US$8.1 billion order for around 50 Boeing 737-8 aircraft.<\/p>\n

When Trump announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs in April, Vietnam had the third-largest trade surplus with the US of any country after China and Mexico, and was targeted with one of the highest rates in Trump’s tariff blitz.<\/p>\n

But in July, Hanoi secured a minimum 20 per cent tariff with Washington, down from more than 40 per cent, in return for opening its market to US products including cars.<\/p>\n

Trump signed off on a global 10 per cent tariff on Friday on all countries hours after the Supreme Court<\/a> ruled many of his levies on imports were illegal.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
