Vietnam has become a key trade partner of Russia in Southeast Asia, which is proved through the results of the two countries’ economy-trade cooperation in 2018.

Wheat flour topped the lists of Russia’s exports to Vietnam for the first time, hitting 476.9 million USD in the first 10 months, a rise of 2.5 times year-on-year.
