Just concluded a great visit to Vietnam.

It was a pleasure to meet with General Secretary Lam, President Cuong, and Minister Giang as we mark 30 years of diplomatic relations.

We're deepening defense cooperation to bolster regional security.

I want to thank Minister Giang for his steadfast commitment to addressing war legacies.

Our defense relationship supports U.S. and Vietnam veterans’ journey toward healing and reconciliation through veteran-to-veteran visits, artifact exchanges, and finding and identifying remains.

Addressing our past helps us build a bright, strong future.

💬 The state’s Secretary of Public Security, Felipe Curi, emphasized that the deaths occurred because the suspects resisted arrest. “Had they not reacted, they would have been arrested in the act for the crimes they were committing, including possession of firearms and explosives, attempted murder against officers, and participation in a criminal organization,” he stated.
