Vietnam – Partner for Prosperity through Free Trade and Innovation

by Florian Feyerabend

A Case Study from the Partner-Atlas

More than three decades of continuous economic growth and political stability have resulted in communist-ruled Vietnam establishing itself as an influential actor not only in Southeast Asia. Vietnam is, for example, linked to the EU through the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) that recently came into effect, and to Germany through a Strategic Partnership.
