On behalf of the United States of America, I offer my best wishes and congratulations to the people of Vietnam on your 78th National Day on September 2.
The United States supports a strong, prosperous, independent, and resilient Vietnam. We cherish the partnership that our governments and people have built together and look forward to working together on priorities that further our shared goal of a prosperous, open, resilient, and peaceful Indo-Pacific Region.
I look forward to President Biden’s historic visit to Hanoi on September 10 to celebrate all we have achieved together and to plan for our shared future.
