According to a Geopolitical Monitor report, US-Vietnam relations have remained stable despite recent political changes in both countries. The report highlights the importance of economic ties and shared security interests in maintaining the relationship. In Vietnam, the Communist Party’s recent fifth plenum saw the consolidation of power for General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong. In the US, the change in administration from Donald Trump to Joe Biden has brought some shifts in foreign policy, but the overall approach towards Vietnam remains consistent.
