Obama visit shows Vietnam is now a country, not a war

Unlike the previous two visits of U.S. presidents to Vietnam, Obama’s arrival in Hanoi seems no longer prominently haunted by the Vietnam-American War and its lingering legacy. The relationship is “better than anytime in the last century,” as said by Vietnam war veteran and long-time Hanoi resident Chuck Searcy. My question is “what’s next” for Vietnam-U.S. relations.
