WASHINGTON -- President Bush opened the Oval Office on Tuesday to the highest-ranking official from
communist Vietnam to visit since the end of the war that divided America and claimed the lives of more than 58,000 U.S. troops. "The Vietnamese economy is growing quite substantially," said Bush, who announced plans to attend an Asia-Pacific economic summit next year in Hanoi. "We talked about our desire for Vietnam to join the WTO. We talked about security issues and a mutual desire to coordinate in the war on terror."
