Russian President Vladimir Putin said during a visit to Vietnam on Thursday that Russia was keen to partner with the southeast Asian country in energy and security.
A day after signing a mutual defence agreement with North Korea, Putin said Moscow and Hanoi are interested in building what he called a reliable security architecture in the Asia-Pacific region.
He also said Russian companies were ready to invest in liquefied natural gas projects in Vietnam.
The Russian leader made the comments in a televised news briefing with Vietnamese President To Lam.
