Earlier the same day, Party General Secretary and President Nguyen Phu Trong had talks with the US President, during which he welcomed the US and the DPRK’s decision to select Vietnam as the venue for their second summit. 
 
The top leader of Vietnam reiterated the country’s consistent implementation of an external policy of independence, self-reliance, multilateralisation and diversification of external relations, and proactive international integration on the principle of mutual respect for each other’s independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity, and political institutions.
 
He also affirmed the Vietnamese Party and State’s consistent policy of attaching great importance to developing the comprehensive partnership with the US.
 
President Trump thanked Vietnam for its careful preparation for the DPRK-USA Hanoi Summit despite of short notice.
