Vietnamese President and Communist Party General Secretary To Lam said his talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin were “highly successful,” held in an atmosphere of openness, friendship and strong mutual trust. The sides reported positive, practical and comprehensive progress in their strategic partnership, with trade, security, energy, science, technology and education among the priority areas.
Seventeen documents were signed during Vietnamese President To Lam’s state visit to Russia and talks with Vladimir Putin. They include an agreement on nuclear and radiation safety regulation, along with oil and gas agreements covering Vietnamese offshore blocks, a strategic oil reserve in Dung Quat and geological exploration.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the current volume of trade with Vietnam remains below the two countries’ potential. Trade grew 5.7% in 2025 and another 13.8% in the first half of this year, with the Russia-EAEU free trade agreement helping boost mutual investment and technology exchanges.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Vietnamese President To Lam adopted a joint statement in Moscow to further strengthen their comprehensive strategic partnership in a new phase. Its 50 provisions cover bilateral ties, including politics, defense, trade, energy, science, healthcare and humanitarian cooperation, as well as international cooperation.
Vietnam and Russia will provide strong political support to each other, protect their legitimate interests and follow their respective foreign policies in line with international law and the UN Charter, President To Lam said. He added that he consistently supports Russia’s stable development and growing role in regional and global affairs.
Russia and Vietnam opposed illegal unilateral sanctions and actions violating the immunity of sovereign state assets, including seizure, in a joint statement issued after Presidents Vladimir Putin and To Lam held talks. They also rejected ideological dividing lines and called for respect for sovereign equality and related international obligations.
Russia and Vietnam said in a joint statement that their defense and security cooperation is not directed against third countries and complies strictly with international law. After talks between Vladimir Putin and To Lam, they agreed to expand mainly high-level delegation exchanges and cooperation in military branches, humanitarian demining, maritime security, safe navigation, personnel training, science and technology, including emerging defense technologies.
Russian and Vietnamese delegations signed a range of documents after a top-level Kremlin meeting attended by Vladimir Putin and To Lam. The two presidents discussed the current state and future development of their comprehensive strategic partnership, and joined the opening of an infectious-disease research and prevention laboratory.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the talks with Vietnamese President To Lam were substantive and productive, with the two sides signing a substantial package of important, mutually beneficial bilateral agreements. Putin said Russia was pleased to host To Lam on a state visit.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Russia and Vietnam are strategic partners whose ties are based on equality, respect and regard for each other’s interests, as well as longstanding friendship and combat comradeship dating to the Soviet era. He said major joint projects and regular dialogue through several channels are continuing.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow and Hanoi have identical or closely aligned positions on many pressing international issues. He said both countries defend international law, sovereignty and non-interference, while stressing coordination at multilateral forums including the Russia-ASEAN dialogue.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Vietnamese President To Lam, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam’s Central Committee, held talks with an expanded group of delegates at the Kremlin. The sides signed several documents. Earlier, the leaders met in a restricted format, following an official welcome ceremony for the Vietnamese delegation.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said he and Vietnamese counterpart To Lam had begun negotiations in Moscow and held highly productive talks in a restricted format, covering key bilateral and international issues.

The US is widening its trade war with Canada through proposed barriers to selected alcohol, dairy and motorcycle imports. It is also seeking to bar Canadian companies from selling to US government contractors.
Notices posted on the White House website on Tuesday show that the Trump administration will prohibit imports of certain Canadian alcoholic beverages, motor vehicles and dairy products beginning September 29.
President Donald Trump moved Tuesday to sharply escalate the trade war with Canada by seeking to block imports of some automobiles, dairy products and alcohol.
The US is banning Canadian imports including alcohol, dairy and motor vehicles as Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on American goods take effect. Donald Trump said Canada was discriminating against US commerce and ordered the ban to begin on 29 September. Mark Carney warned that shifting away from the US as Canada’s biggest trading partner would carry a cost.
President Donald Trump signed a proclamation adding a 50% additional tariff on some Canadian products while removing the existing 50% tariff on others. The measure is intended to offset burdens on U.S. commerce and will take effect September 15, covering products including mattresses, motorboats and golf carts.
The escalating U.S.-Canada trade dispute is increasing pressure on companies across the border, especially in autos, steel and manufacturing.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday that Canada would accelerate efforts to reduce its economic dependence on the United States. The statement came as retaliatory tariffs on roughly $20 billion in US goods took effect and Ottawa awaited President Donald Trump’s response.
Canada’s retaliatory tariffs have taken effect, with Carney promoting a shift away from the United States. Canada is among the few countries to respond to US tariffs despite relying on US buyers for roughly 70% of its exports.
Canada’s dollar-for-dollar retaliatory tariffs on the United States are now in force, covering $20 billion worth of American goods. The measures could affect everyday products, according to NBC News’ report.

Retaliatory Canadian duties reaching 50% on billions of dollars in US goods began on Tuesday, deepening the 18-month commercial confrontation between the neighbouring North American countries.
As Canada’s retaliatory tariffs take effect, automakers and businesses on both sides of the border warn that the escalating trade war will raise costs, disrupt supply chains and threaten jobs.
