Russian President Vladimir Putin (R) and Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary To Lam (L) address journalists following their talks in Moscow, Russia, on May 10, 2025, during celebrations of the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.
Russia-Vietnam Ties Are Set To Grow Following Lam's Eurasia Tour
Vietnam's expanding partnerships with Eurasian countries, chiefly Russia, will enhance its multialigned position and give Moscow an opening to reassert influence in Southeast Asia, but structural constraints will limit the extent of cooperation. From May 6-12, Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary To Lam, the country's de facto top leader, undertook a high-profile diplomatic tour of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Belarus and Russia. The trip culminated in a landmark summit on May 9 with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, during which the two sides issued a 33-point joint statement outlining the 2026-30 Vietnam-Russia Strategic Partnership Plan, which significantly deepens ties between the two countries under their comprehensive strategic partnership framework. The updated framework includes accelerated finalization of negotiations to implement two Russian-built nuclear power plants in Vietnam's Ninh Thuan province with a planned combined capacity of 6.4 gigawatts and an operational target of 2030 to 2035. The new strategic partnership plan also

The Geopolitics of Trade: Rising Threats to Nearshoring in the Americas
Trump administration policies will create new challenges for nearshoring manufacturing closer to the United States, but a reversal that substantially damages major manufacturing countries' attractiveness for nearshoring is unlikely. In 2023, Mexico surpassed China as the top exporter to the United States for the first time in decades, a position Mexico held for the second year in a row in 2024. Canada, for its part, is the largest recipient of U.S. exports (though China exports a larger amount to the United States), illustrating the deep interconnectivity of North American supply chains and, amid broader shifts in global trade, pointing to an ongoing uptick in manufacturing in parts of the Western Hemisphere to supply the U.S. market. Nonetheless, U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico, even if narrowed compared to their original imposition, are generating growing uncertainty about the attractiveness of these and other regional countries for nearshoring, especially

Facing Territorial Losses and External Pressure, Myanmar's Junta Plans Elections
In Myanmar, the junta's state of emergency extension signals both its failure to stabilize the country as well as its intent to push forward with elections, which will likely be neither free nor fair but could nonetheless serve as a diplomatic tool to maintain international engagement amid growing territorial losses and economic disruption. On Jan. 31, Myanmar's ruling military junta, formally known as the State Administration Council, extended the country's state of emergency for another six months, marking the fifth such extension since the Feb. 2021 coup that overthrew the elected National League for Democracy, or NLD, government. The announcement, made by junta leader Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, cited the need to facilitate secure proceedings for a planned general election later in 2025, though no specific date has been announced. This comes amid ongoing threats from officially designated ''terrorist'' groups, a reference to the collective armed resistance movement led

France: New Government Offers Slower Pace of Deficit Reduction
French Finance Minister Eric Lombard announced plans to slow the pace of deficit reduction slightly -- targeting a 2025 deficit of 5.5% of gross domestic product, just above the previous 5% goal -- to "protect growth" through fewer spending cuts and tax hikes, the Financial Times reported on Jan. 6, citing Lombard’s comments to France Inter radio.
