I really needed some good news right now, tbh.

Very happy to see Viet Nam make this move. I wonder how this fits in with the tariff strategy, since the US has threatened retaliation on any country that de-dollarizes or joins BRICS+. Maybe past the point of caring about trying to appease the US.

I don't love the Trump project up north, but it is a brilliant appeal to his ego, rather than giving in to anything the US empire really wants. Be a reeeaaaal shame to have cancel that vanity project because the tariffs are back on...

:🎉 Chúc mừng Việt Nam! :🎉
