Vietnam is in the spotlight after its selection to host the second summit between Democratic People's Republic of Korea top leader Kim Jong-un and United States President Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, Trump used his biggest speech of the year, the State of the Union address, to announce that his second summit with Kim will take place in Danang, Vietnam, on Feb 27-28. Analysts and observers said this summit is highly anticipated because it is likely to be a more pragmatic one.
Although much work remains to be done toward peace on the Korean Peninsula, Trump said his relationship with Kim is a good one, citing the halt in DPRK nuclear testing and no new missile launches in 15 months as proof of progress.
