When the US is demanding Vietnam "to reduce its dependency on Chinese high-tech", is Vietnam being offered the American high-tech in return? Does the US even have the kind of high-tech needed by Vietnam? Perhaps the US is only trying to 白嫖 Vietnam.
That's the best part, the US doesn't even have anything to offer. For most of the tooling and industrial inputs that Vietnam needs to build its manufacturing sector, China is either the only source or it'd be too expensive from anyone else.

Vietnam does not have the power generation and heavy industry to replace China yet. With a low power, high labor force economy, you have to do just final assembly of goods, or do something like garments. The US is asking for something Vietnam cannot deliver.
It feels like the US is looking for someone to be the next China and they're onto Vietnam because India has proven to be a bust. The problem with Vietnam is that the reason why its industrial production has grown so much is because of its supply chain leading from China.

Vietnam population size is not that big. It doesn't have that many talented STEM educated graduates.

you need many STEM graduates like china and india to compete and work in the 3.5-4th revolution industry. Vietnam is not it.

India has the potential but it needs a few decades to get it going.
India's so called graduates are not even remotely competent. The ones that get into western universities are like the top 1%. The rest of universities are junk

right now it looks like crap. in a few decades of making, they will look decent depending on what path they take.

first, their STEM graduates need to return home for development. make their own brand and products like China.

Pakistan is extending full diplomatic support to Iran (We've also helped in other ways - hopefully more assistance will be extended).


Acknowledged by Iran's President in the parliament:


I hope Post-War Iran will remember it because Iran's FM didn't condemn May 7 strikes and was just calling for restraint. He was signing strategic deals with India next day.
IMO a stupid move.

Pakistan is not in position to paint a target on its back. It's economy is in tatters and its being surviving because China is basically subsidizing it militarily and economically.

Any small western sanction push and Pakistan could quickly go down economically. They should lay low for another decade. This is not yet the time to play these games
