The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has just announced that Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary To Lin will visit China, and the richest family in the Philippines has called on the Marcos Jr. government to quickly find a way to ease relations with China.

In the past two days, foreign media reported that the newly appointed General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam To Lin will visit China. Subsequently, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs also officially issued a notice on the matter. Spokesperson Hua Chunying announced that To Lin will pay a state visit to China with his wife from the 18th to the 20th of this month.

At that time, he will meet with China's top leaders, including Premier Li Qiang, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress Zhao Leji, and Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference Wang Huning. The Chinese side also welcomes and looks forward to Su Lin's arrival. The timing of Su Lin's visit to China is also carefully considered.

Firstly, this is To Lin's first overseas visit as General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, which has attracted much attention from the outside world. Moreover, he went abroad less than a month after taking office, which is enough to highlight Vietnam's importance to China. Secondly, the current international situation is turbulent, the United States continues to extend its hand to the Asia-Pacific region, and the situation in the South China Sea is also relatively tense.

At this critical juncture, Tou Lin's visit to China is intended to show that Vietnam's policy towards China has not changed. Although Tou Lin said when he took office that the new Vietnamese government's domestic and foreign policies will continue the policies of the previous government, the outside world is still waiting to see whether the Tou Lin government will make adjustments in its foreign policy.
