Court documents show that the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) removed 1,851 Vietnamese nationals in financial years 2024, 2025 and 2026 up to June, including 1,094 in FY2026 alone. The FY2026 figure has since risen by nearly 200.

Here’s something that doesn’t happen every day. Just one week after being elected Vietnam’s president, To Lam flew to Beijing for a state visit. Oh, and by the way—he’s also the Communist Party chief. This is his *second* time making China his first overseas trip after taking a new top job. The first was in August 2024, within 10 days of becoming party general secretary.

So what’s going on?

History is changing

When the Han Empire controlled Vietnam 2,000 years ago, there was no doubt that the people on this land also belonged to the Han people.During this period, the “Han people” were not a nation, but “citizens of the Han Empire”

Yes. We share plenty of similar cultures throughout our neighbor China.

We, Koreans and Vietnamese fought against the formidable Chinese army for centuries. Meanwhile, we adopted many Chinese cultures such as Confucianism, Chinese characters and building styles. And we developed those into our unique styles.

Especially, the last dynasty of both Vietnam and Korea, were both influenced by Ming dynasty, not Qing dynasty which was the lastest one in Chinese history.

Korea and Vietnam loved Ming dynasty more than Qing Dynasty founded by Manchu. Japan, on the other hand, was influenced by Tang dynasty. China was influenced by the lastest danysty, Qing.

Question: Vietnam claims the Paracel islands from China, why doesn’t Cambodia claim Kampuchea Krom, Kon Tral, and Koh Tralach islands from Vietnam?

Answer: Both cases are very different.

Kampuchea Krom/Southern Vietnam, Kon Tra/Phu Quoc islands/ Koh Tralach/Con Dao

Cambodia has recognized the sovereignty of Vietnam over the Kampuchea Krom/Southern Vietnam, Kon Tra/Phu Quoc islands/ Koh Tralach/Con Dao.

Cambodia, Vietnam ratify border work

[1]

Vietnam and Cambodia have signed the border agreement in which Kampuchea Krom/Southern Vietnam, Kon Tra/Phu Quoc islands/ Koh Tralach/Con Dao are the Vietnamese sovereignty territories. There is no dispute with these Vietnamese territories, Therefore, Cambodia could not claim it.

[TĐH: I am not sure that the US actively supported Khmer Rouge, as asserted in the following article. At that time, US had just lost South Vietnam (The Republic of VN) to North Vietnam (The Socialist Republic of VN), so US was depressed, angry at North Vietnam, embargoing the newly united Vietnam, and shy from involving Vietnam in anything. So, US was doing nothing related to Vietnam (except the embago), acting like US knew nothing about the astrocities happening in Cambodia. And EU simply followed its leader US. The entire Western world turned a blind eye toward Cambodia.

China punished Vietnam in 1979 for “invading” Cambodia but got black-eyed from Vietnam.

Call it anything you want, but Vietnam did eliminate Khmer Rouge and save the Cambodians from the worst astrocities in Cambodia’s history. You can ask Hun Sen directly about this.]

Why did Kmer Rouge attacked Vietnam in 1975-1978 while they are weaker obviously?

What ordinary Vietnamese and high-level intellectuals think about China

The average Vietnamese believes that China is Vietnam’s enemy, while the high-level intellectual class tends to believe that China is the ancient Rome of East Asia, which has shaped them.

Vietnam has been ruled by China three times in history, which is generally called the Northern period. During these times, in their view, China’s rule was somewhat similar to the role of the Romans in Europe. China conquered Vietnam by force, and then immigrated and imported Chinese culture to carry out cultural conquest. In ancient times, China was the cultural core of East Asia and regarded itself as Huaxia, while Vietnam was a barbarian land.

In the span of three months, presidents of both the US and China have visited Hanoi. From the visits, numerous trade and investment deals were signed. Politically and economically, Vietnam stands to gain from closer ties with the US. As President Biden continues to de-risk from China, American businesses are shifting their operations and manufacturing from China to Vietnam. But camaraderie with Washington could jeopardise Hanoi’s relationship with Beijing and Moscow. Why are the superpowers courting Vietnam, and can the Southeast Asian country balance the competing wants of rival titans?
