Expert: Russia may lose the arms market of Vietnam

Russia may lose its position in the Vietnamese arms market due to the increased presence of the US weapons lobby in the country. Washington demonstrates tough competition to Russian military technologies, while strengthening its own positions by any means, up to the imposition of sanctions against Hanoi for continuing MTC with Moscow, said Director of the Ho Chi Minh Institute Vladimir Kolotov.

He noted that the United States is currently imposing sanctions on any countries that support military-technical cooperation with Moscow, making a temporary exception for India, Indonesia and Vietnam. But at any time when only they want, in Washington they can decide to cancel the exceptions and then buying weapon Vietnam will also fall under US sanctions. And although Russia still maintains its position in the Vietnamese arms market, by its actions the United States is increasingly pushing Russian technology from this market.

In general, according to a specialist, the trade turnover between the USA and Vietnam is ten times higher than the Russian-Vietnamese one and therefore in Vietnam are forced to listen to what is advised in Washington.

Russia is losing the US in this country in almost all positions, with the exception of cooperation in the energy sector, the oil and gas sector, and so far military-technical cooperation. At the same time, says Kolotov, this is not the merit of Russian firms. Russian companies have never competed for entering the Vietnamese market, but received their positions on it from the Soviet Union, therefore, they lose.

Unpleasant, of course, but .... everything flows, everything changes. And how will this American-Vietnamese friendship end - we'll see. Perhaps the new carpet bombing of Hanoi.

Everything will be fine with them, the Germans and I did not fight for life but fought in the past, and now Germany is our key European economic partner.
Money is the rule!

[Kent0001]

You move away from the past. They wrote about the turnover there. Still have a question? while our bureaucrats are getting rich on kickbacks contrary to the interests of the country, this country has already been moved from everywhere. Something like this.

[sub307]

Most likely, the new carpet bombing of Hanoi will not take place, at least from the United States. And the technology of these same bombing seems to have changed. But the fact that the USA will be “torn out” of Russia from Vietnam from those “niches” that Russia inherited from the USSR is very possible. But it’s not necessary to assume that once someone helped, this very someone will be imbued with “dog loyalty” forever.

[Russia]

Americans without historical complexes, but Vietnam, must remember that not all of their benefactors do it just like that and like that.

Friendship against China and no more.

And what mattress technology is already comparable in price to Russian? How much will the Vietnamese budget “pull” the miracle of airplanes or ships?

Hello ... lost South America, now Vietnam ...
Next in line is India.

[seti]

Wow. This is directly the opinion of a grand expert. Please give an example of where and what have we lost there in South America? and what else do we have next?

[Zaurbek]

Buying weapons is a complex thing in peacetime ... Trading with the United States and the US market for Vietnam is much more important than with the Russian Federation and in the event of a conflict with China, the United States will help them more than the Russian Federation ... and Vietnam has no other enemies. Another way is the way of Israel - mobile and innovative. This is where you need to go.

The United States is much more important for Vietnam than with the Russian Federation and in the event of a conflict with China, the United States will help them more than the Russian Federation.

Would Kamrani have a full-fledged base, as in the days of the USSR, you look and the situation on the arms market would be different. And then we are from Vietnam: somehow, according to Medvedev’s, we left, like: for now, guys, hold on somehow

I'm not even a close supporter of DAM, but what does he have to do with it? From Kamrani and from Cuba, it was your sun-faced man who brought our units out. Perhaps this was his next tricky move, like a ticket bought, but did not board the bus

[cost]

Read my koment one more time more attentively. And here is D.A.M.? Absolutely nothing to do with. Even in "Medvedev" it is written in quotation marks. His phrase that has become “winged” is simply given, relative to the Camran base.
And you are a supporter of DAM, or not, as they say - your problems.
Be healthy.

Out of place

[Zaurbek]

We did it ourselves, as well as from Cuba ....

[Mountain shooter]

Oh, right, they scared me any sanctions tend to BAD everyone they threaten. And what prevents countries under sanctions from uniting? What if they become CRITICALLY a lot?

[Imobile]

Poverty interferes

[turbris]

It’s just that American companies offer more favorable conditions and prices, of course we must enter into competition for the Vietnamese market.

[Magic archer]

We must Fight for contracts and not sit and wait! Americans are aggressive in business and do not shy away by any means, but our snot chewing! Plus, according to some samples, we really lag behind! What can I say, the Jews are already delivering their small arms there! And where were our gunsmiths ?!

[Comrade Ivanov]

Russia needs to sell weapons to North Korea, there is a demand.

[Imobile]

And what will they pay?

[RUSS]

Quote: Imobile

And what will they pay?

Nothing, therefore, they won’t receive anything, the time when we all presented and wrote off debts passed, the freebie ended.

[Mordvin 3]

There are a lot of rare earth metals. But ours, it seems, except for green papers, does not need anything.

[Imobile]

We are a raw materials appendage, why do we need a competitor?

[ANCIENT]

Specifically, what can the author really offer? ?? Apart from the fact, nothing has been written about how to change the situation.

[Real russian]

So nothing can be changed.
Even if we give away for free ...

[Zaurbek]

In terms of weapons for the Navy and next to it, we don’t have much to offer competitive, and the United States has comprehensive solutions.

[1536]

Apparently, the Americans can sell more modern weapons and equipment to the Vietnamese, adapted specifically for fighting the enemy in the jungle and tropical climate, as well as combat boats and small coast guard ships (Vietnam is near China), military electronics and robotic control systems. We can hardly offer this to the Vietnamese even in the foreseeable future. But Vietnam’s tanks, fighter planes and air defense systems are of little concern today. All that remains is small arms, and here the Americans are unlikely to be able to squeeze us. And then, one cannot live all the time with long-standing victories. We must sometimes think about the future.

[_Ugene_]

this is unlikely, they will buy Abrams instead of the T-90, right now

[naidas]

And rightly the suckers from Russia have forgiven the debt, now let them go aside.

[ALEX_SHTURMAN]

We ourselves gave up the lever of influence: for the whole world, we will give the last shirt to the good ones, and we will cut the money from our population and raise their retirement age ..

[Sarmat Sanych]

Frankly, the biased view of the head of the Provenyam Institute. "Russian companies have never competed for entry into the Vietnamese market" - what is it all about? Russian defense industry companies face fierce competition plus maximum sanctions around the world and still win often, because they simply do not have equal rivals for certain positions. So do not tryndezhi. With regards to power engineers (since I’m connected with this area), the Vietnamese just threw Inter-RAO with the station, and ours and power engineers and hydropower engineers and power builders have no worse competencies than Americans with the Chinese. And then who is there, Rosneft - that’s how it works with PetroVietnam on the exchange, they give us a deposit on our shelf, we give them a deposit in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, there the volumes are mutually small, nothing significant. But the fact that Vietnam freely enters our market with its consumer goods and poor-quality food “according to the old friendship” - so Mr. / Comrade Kolotov did not mention this for some reason, but we can easily do without all this rubbish. But the Vietnamese are not without us, and they themselves know it.

[Imobile]

Yes, only we were framed by this exchange, now China has openly declared that Russia is an enemy.

[Berkut24]

I think that in the end, everyone who launched the Americans to sleep is not calm. For they never go until they have stolen from the master all that was.

Yes, they settled it, there was an insignificant question, they climbed several kilometers behind their shelf. But what kind of “institute” is this is a more important problem. And what other civilian projects are they planning to move us there, despite the fact that we are busy there - not for nothing but through competition.

[sleeve]

was he vietnam market ...

[armenk]

Judging by the amount of debt of 11 billion, of which 9 were written off in the early 2000s, there is some kind of market there .. It was necessary to write off the debt in order to launch the Americans there ..

[Ural resident]

After the terrible war that the United States unleashed in Vietnam and lost miserably, they returned and peacefully stood at the head. It’s worth learning. And for what they fought and so many lives were put, both of them - in general, it becomes unclear.

[dimonch]

What is surprising, in Russia only the raw materials sector is being developed.
All the rest is for looking away.
