Vietnam has expressed its readiness to engage with the United States to address the newly imposed steel tariffs. A spokesperson from Vietnam's foreign ministry announced on Thursday that the nation is prepared to hold discussions aimed at averting additional duties on Vietnamese steel exports.

This announcement came during a regular press conference where the spokesperson emphasized the constructive approach Vietnam intends to pursue with the U.S. The focus remains on minimizing the impacts of these tariffs on Vietnam's steel industry.
