HANOI (Reuters) -- Vietnam stands ready to import more farm products from the U.S., according to a statement from trade minister Nguyen Hong Dien on Friday, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump said he would start imposing global reciprocal tariffs.
The Southeast Asian export hub, home to manufacturing operations of multinationals including Apple and Samsung, could be hit hard by any new tariffs. Last year, it posted a record $123.5 billion trade surplus with the U.S., the largest after China, the European Union and Mexico.
