Beyond impressive economic growth figures, 2025 also marked major strategic advances in Viet Nam’s external relations, reflecting the country’s new standing in an era of national rise. It marked a decisive shift for Viet Nam — from a country integrating and participating actively to a core role that leads, proactively shapes and contributes to the shared rules of the international community.
