He reiterated that Vietnam pursues a consistent policy of not joining any military alliance nor allying with any country to act against a third country, making it clear that that all statements by the ministry on the issue remain unchanged.  “Vietnam upholds the external policy of independence, self-reliance, cooperation and development, diversification and multilateralisation of international relations, and extensive global integration, as well as developing cooperation with all partners on the basis of mutual benefit for peace, stability, cooperation and prosperity in the Asia-Pacific region and the world.”  The comprehensive strategic partnership between Vietnam and Russia is growing strongly, as are the relations with other major partners in the world, he stated.-VNA
