President Joe Biden will travel to Vietnam following his trip to India in early September, the White House announced Monday morning.
Biden is scheduled to be in India from Sept. 7-10 for state meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that he would travel to Hanoi at the conclusion of that trip."While in Hanoi, President Biden will meet with General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong and other key leaders to discuss ways to further deepen cooperation between the United States and Vietnam," Jean-Pierre wrote in a statement.
The president has made courting Asian leaders a focus of his third year in office. The White House has maintained these meetings are aimed at ensuring economic and security stability in the Indo-Pacific region, not countering any country in particular, but they all come amid escalating tensions with China and North Korea.
