In a recent article titled, “Vietnam, Russia Urged to Enhance Cooperation” sparked my attention because I feel as though being in Barcelona has truly made me focus more on what is going on in the rest of the world rather than just in the United States. I enjoy reading the paper and politics is something I am interested in so reading this article definitely kept my attention.
The article discusses how Prime Minister Dung is needs Vietnam and Russia to work closely with one another to implement agreements signed by leaders, focusing on boosting bilateral cooperation in trade, investment, culture, among other things.
There are negotiations being made on a free trade agreement between Vietnam and Russia which is why the cooperation of the two countries is very important. This agreement will facilitate trade, investment, and raise two way trade to the United States by billions of dollars starting in 2012.
The article says, “Vietnam asked for Russia’s support in its bid for membership of the UN Human Rights Council for the 2013-2016 term and as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council for the 2020-2021 term and the Russians acknowledged Vietnam’s proposal”.
The cooperation of the two countries will be very beneficial to all.
