Vietnam and South Korea Forge New Paths in Nuclear and Tech Collaboration

In a pivotal meeting in Hanoi, leaders from Vietnam and South Korea committed to deepening their partnership in nuclear energy and high-tech sectors. The countries aim to fortify supply chains amid increasing global trade uncertainties.

South Korea's significant role as Vietnam's largest investor was further emphasized during the ceremony, where 12 cooperation documents were signed. Vietnam seeks a partner for a nuclear power project due to Japan's withdrawal, highlighting the country's growing industrial power demands.
