U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken attended the funeral of Nguyen Phu Trong , Vietnam 's general secretary of a Communist party.

Trong 's 13-year rule saw the country make enormous strides, including a drastic decline in the nation’s poverty rate from 14% of the population in 2010 to 4% in 2022 .

Despite its “sandwich” position in the current great power competition, Vietnam has maintained good relations with Beijing , Moscow and Washington .

Jorge Heine : Vietnamese leader Nguyen Phu Trong will be best remembered for 'bamboo diplomacy' Trong 's strategy was triggered by growing tensions between China and the U.S. At heart, bamboo diplomacy is about refusing to take sides in the politics of great power competition.

Trong was especially successful in attracting companies eager to diminish their dependence on operations in China .
