Clinton in Vietnam to mark 15-year relationship
HANOI, Vietnam — U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi for events marking the 15th anniversary of normalized U.S.-Vietnam relations.
Clinton arrived in Hanoi on Thursday for two days of talks that will also include a regional security forum with senior officials from around Southeast Asia. Those discussions are expected to focus largely on the threat posed by North Korea.
Clinton came to Hanoi from Seoul, where she announced new U.S. sanctions against North Korea and, with Defense Secretary Robert Gates, offered strong support for South Korea.
