HANOI (Reuters) – Vietnam’s president and ruling Communist Party chief To Lam will pay a working visit to the United States next week and participate in the 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, according to a government statement.
After that, Lam will pay an official visit to Cuba, Vietnam’s long-term communist partner.
Lam’s visit will take place from September 22-27, the statement said. It did not give specific timeframe of Lam’s visit to each country.
Reuters on Tuesday reported that during his U.S. visit, Lam will deliver a speech at the UN event and meet representatives from several U.S. corporations, including Alphabet’s Google and Facebook owner Meta.
The government statement did not say whether Lam would meet U.S. President Biden during the U.S. trip.
