US signs nuclear technology deal with Vietnam

John Kerry says agreement will allow US firms to invest in energy market in Vietnam, where annual growth is at 5%

The United States and Vietnam have signed a pact allowing the transfer of nuclear technology to the south-east Asian country, opening the way for US investment in the burgeoning industry.

US secretary of state John Kerry said the US-Vietnam Civil Nuclear Co-operation Agreement would allow US firms to tap Vietnam's future nuclear power market, although the state department said the deal would not allow Vietnam to enrich or reprocess US-origin nuclear materials.

The deal will be submitted to Barack Obama for his review before it is sent to Congress for approval by the end of the year, a US official said.

The US has moved to improve economic and security ties with Vietnam, part of its strategic rebalancing towards Asia that some see as a policy to counter China's rising clout. China's assertive claims over the South China sea have raised tensions with Vietnam, as well as other south-east Asian nations.

Vietnam's poor human rights record is a major obstacle to closer ties and US labour and human rights groups have urged Obama to suspend free-trade negotiations with Vietnam because of its treatment of workers and government critics.

Analysts say a sharp increase in the past few years in arrests and convictions of government detractors, in particular bloggers, could complicate the nuclear deal as Congress needs to be convinced Vietnam is changing.

Vietnam is working with Russia to build its first nuclear plant in 2014 for completion in 2020 in the south-central province of Ninh Thuan. Demand for energy has grown rapidly in response to economic growth of around 5% a year.

It has also signed an agreement with a Japanese consortium to develop a second nuclear power plant in the same province, with two reactors to become operational in 2024-2025. Vietnam has the second-largest market after China for nuclear power in east Asia, which was expected to grow to $50bn (£31bn) by 2030, according to Kerry.

I advise you not to cooperate with Westinghouse. They have poor quality. We in Ukraine had a big problem when we used Westinghouse instead the Russian fuel rods - for political reasons.

Bro, we need their right to enrich uranium on our soil without being sanctioned like N.Korea and Iran first , and then we can use Russia technology and secretly make some Nuke warhead after that :P

Never going to happen..US, IAEA, UN all would be party to it and will observe.

Over all such a deal is good for Energy requirements.

That is a different matter if US can stop it or not US has successfully made Assad regime to destroy chemical weapons. US has stopped russians from delivering S-300 to iranians. It is good vietnam has two civil nuclear deals from russia and US but i have my doubt russians would extend their help vietnam develop nukes. Lastly i wonder why US has not sold aircraft like F-16 claiming to be the best friend iit is the decades old sanctions are at work.
 
HEHE... make nuclear deal with U.S, then u will get nuclear weapons ?! That's so easy to develop a nuke.
U mean as simple as cooking eggs in ur kitchen,don't u ? Nuke is a BIG DREAM, a CRAZY DREAM easy to ruin some small country in today world.

So, lets wait and see bro, we are not so hasty in possessing nuke warhead. at least with HEU fuel being enriched to 36 percent sent by Soviet, we can make dirty nuke warhead to scare some one now :P

Ur Russian comrade might dislike it, coz today China-Russia r military alliance, they held military drill each year, specially both of 2x countries built SCO (he Shanghai cooperation organization). Theoretically now China's enemy is Russia's enemy,also for Russia.

Russian maybe drunk or crazy to help VN building nuke to against China, now Russia and China stay together on the same one boat when facing threats coming from the East Pacific.

If VN ever got nuclear help from Russian before 1990s, at max a dirty bomb. U lack weapon-level nuclear material (93% enriched uranium), specially lack thousands of uranium centrifugal machines(only U.S, Russia, China can produce it) without BIG FIVE allow no country can make nuke. (Except BIG FIVE, as we knew only Israel, India, Pakistan really exploded their nukes, N.Korea just dirty bomb.)

U.S, Russia, China, France, Britain controll the spread of nuclear weapons in this world, so it's a reason why BIG FIVE setup the U.N after WWII to stop Nuke Proliferation before WWIII.
