The US Secretary of State has visited Vietnam, a country it shares strong trading ties with despite once being at war. Washington's desire to deepen relations presents Hanoi with a difficult balancing act, to avoid antagonising its neighbour China.
Hanoi's human rights record has also been sharply criticised.
So why is Washington wooing Vietnam?

Presenter: Dareen Abughaida

Guests:
Chong Ja Ian, Associate Professor of political science, National University in Singapore, non-resident fellow Carnegie China.

Natasha Lindstaedt US foreign policy specialist, Deputy Dean of Education, Department of Government, University of Essex.

Donald Kirk - Veteran correspondent and author.
