Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Hanoi on Monday to begin a two-day state visit aimed at deepening strategic and economic relations with Vietnam, as both countries navigate mounting trade pressures from the United States.
Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Hanoi on Monday, April 14, for a two-day state visit to Vietnam—the first leg of his three-nation tour of Southeast Asia.
During his stay from April 14 to 15, Xi is scheduled to hold meetings with Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary To Lam and other senior officials. Following his visit to Vietnam, Xi will travel to Malaysia and Cambodia from April 15 to 18, marking his first visits to those countries in nine and twelve years, respectively.
This trip to Hanoi—Xi’s second in under 18 months—seeks to strengthen ties with a key strategic neighbor that has attracted significant Chinese investment in recent years, particularly as manufacturers have relocated southward to sidestep U.S. tariffs introduced during the Trump administration.
The visit takes place against a backdrop of growing trade tensions, with China currently facing U.S. tariffs of 145 percent. Meanwhile, Vietnam is engaged in talks to reduce a looming 46 percent U.S. tariff, set to take effect in July following the expiration of a global trade moratorium.
