Book excerpt: On July 13, 2000, U.S. and Vietnamese negotiators signed a sweeping bilateral trade agreement (BTA). Following affirmative votes in Congress and the Vietnamese National Assembly, the BTA entered in into force on December 10, 2001, when the two countries formally exchanged letters implementing the agreement. Under the deal, the U.S. will extend temporary most-favored nation (MFN, also known as normal trade relations [NTR] status) status to Vietnam, a step that will significantly reduce U.S. tariffs on most imports from Vietnam. The World Bank has estimated that Vietnam's exports to the U.S. will rise to $1.3 billion - 60% higher than 2000 levels - in the first year of MFN status, as U.S. tariff rates on Vietnamese exports will fall from their non-MFN average of 40% to less than 3%. In particular, Vietnamese garment exports are expected to record a tenfold increase in the first year after receiving MFN treatment. In return, Hanoi agreed to undertake a wide range of market-liberalization measures, including extending MFN treatment to U.S. exports, reducing tariffs on goods, easing barriers to U.S. services (such as banking and telecommunications), committing to protect certain intellectual property rights, and providing additional inducements and protections for inward foreign direct investment. Vietnam is the world's 13th most populous country, with 78 million inhabitants, roughly equal to the population of Germany. The U.S. and Vietnam reached an agreement in principle in July 1999, but for nearly a year Vietnam delayed finalizing the deal because of intense divisions among the Vietnamese Communist Party (VCP) leadership. Under the requirements of Title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 - Section 402 of which is commonly referred to as the "Jackson-Vanik amendment" - signing a bilateral trade agreement is a necessary step for the U.S. to restore MFN treatment to certain socialist countries, including Vietnam. Congressional approval of the BTA will allow the President to extend MFN treatment to Vietnam. Such MFN status will be conditional because - as with all Title IV BTAs - it will require annual Presidential extensions, which Congress could disapprove. This report outlines the terms of the BTA, identifies U.S. and Vietnamese motivations for entering into the deal, analyzes the reasons for Vietnam's delay in signing the agreement, and explains Congress' role in the process of restoring normal trade relations treatment to Vietnam. This report will be updated periodically. Further information on U.S.-Vietnam relations is available in CRS Issue Brief IB98033, Vietnam-U.S. Relations. Further information on the legislative and legal procedures for handling the BTA is available in CRS Report RS20717, Vietnam Trade Agreement: Approval and Implementing Procedure.

Book excerpt: The December 10, 2001 implementation of the U.S.- Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) was the culmination of a decade-long process to fully normalize diplomatic ties between Washington and Hanoi. Missteps by both sides, however, characterized the process that led to this historic accord. There was political hesitation, certainly, in both capitals to sign on to this sweeping agreement, but the greater difficulty lay within the U.S. Administration itself. Without clear direction or leadership from the White House or senior State Department officials, the U.S. Embassy was able to delay the agreement by forcing an "all or nothing" approach toward the BTA. In this policy vacuum, a small non-governmental organization -- with the support of a miniscule business contingent, and a few U.S. senators -- provided the impetus that helped the two sides reach a successful conclusion. The story of the Bilateral Trade Agreement - which symbolically ended one of our nation's most traumatic wars - is one of a moribund interagency process that ultimately was energized by a mere handful of players outside of the formal bureaucratic process.
