  Vietnamese could buy Italian machinery and Austrians could wear more athletic shoes from Vietnam. (5)That is because Vietnam is moving closer to reaching a trade deal with the European Union. Negotiations ended on December 2. The agreement would diversify Vietnam’s trade with nations other than China and the US. The European Union (EU) officials have praised the Vietnam deal. They say it removes 99 percent of tariffs.
  (6) The proposed agreement requires Vietnam to reform state-run companies and strengthen environmental protection. It also links commerce with development aid. EU trade negotiator Jana Herceg said Vietnam would receive support to increase technology that preserves the environment. Support also would be aimed at the energy, health care and tourism industries.
  The European Union has tried to reach a single trade agreement with the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations. But those efforts failed. The EU then changed its strategy, and is negotiating deals with individual governments. Singapore was the first to reach an agreement, followed by Vietnam. (7)Jana Herceg said if the Vietnam deal is finalized, it could set an example and speed up talks with other parties. These could include the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand.
